Default Yueng Chan's Hammer

Some time ago I read an article on how to make a hammer like the one used by
Yueng Chan. It is a small wooden hammer with a brass face. I have searched
my stacks of magazines and used the online index at FWW and Googled, but
can't find that article. Does anyone remember which magazine it was in?

Thanks

Roger

Not trying to be a smart a@#e but saw a small wooden hammer with a copper
face at Bunnings, my local Hardware.
I understand Fitter and Machinist types use them because copper does not
throw off metal fragments.
Whats a Yueng Chan hammer?
Cheers
John

How about a brass hammer with a wood face. Made to use on wood hand
planes.
