I bought some "hawk bells" to decorate a tomahawk I had just finished. I decided since it was the holidays to attach the a couple of bells to my favorite hammer right below the head. Jingle bells in the forge as it were. Here is the amazing upshot of this little bit of foolishness, improved hammer control. It gives an added dimension when hammering, the sound of the bells at the top of the swing. I couldn't believe my ears, a whole additonal dimension of control at the top of the swing. Since I am kind of a hammer control junkie, I thought I'd pass it along..Has anyone ever tried anything like this??.. Not sure I'd take the hammer out in public by the way, looks pretty weird.
Happy Holidays All
