Hammer Has A Chisel Inside

Hammer Has A Chisel Inside FARM SHOP Miscellaneous 33-5-37 "It hangs on the side of my tractor in a pvc mounting bracket. I find all kinds of uses for it," says Eric "Moose" Petrevich, Glen Gardner, N. J., about his homemade hammer with a chisel hidden in the handle. He made the hammer out of a 2-ft. piece of threaded 1 1/8-in. dia. steel pipe. The chisel is welded to the metal end cap that screws onto one end of the pipe. A hammer head is welded to the other end. "I made it because I found that often whenever I needed a hammer I also needed a chisel," says Petrevich. "Carrying both tools all the time was a pain, and often the chisel got lost." He drilled a hole in the end cap and stuck the chisel through so its hitting end extends just outside the end cap. The "Moose Mallet" fits inside a short length of pvc pipe mounted on his tractor. He also takes it scuba diving. A chain link welded to the top of the hammer head serves as a handy carrying loop.
