I recently removed some brick from my fireplace and I used this chisel:

And this hammer:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00I33UDUS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I was using some old chisels and a claw hammer and it was getting the job done, but the way I look at it, if I'm going to save us a bunch of money fixing the house myself then I'm going to treat myself with tools. These two tools made a significant difference.

The chisel is a no brainer for the price, sped things up a lot because of the large size, less splintering of what was there, etc. The large size will help you get between the mortar and the current brick you don't want to disturb.

The sledge is optional. Everyone has claw hammers and it gets the work done. But I was amazed at how much more powerful a couple of pounds are when you're driving chisels and knocking out bricks instead of just pounding nails. Don't know how I never owned a sledge hammer before now.

u/KeithO · 5 pointsr/GripTraining

This is cool and that it's adjustable is great.

I just use a 4LB Hammer that's not used for work just for grip training (so it's not dirty and fucked up).

Would love if the handle was round and wide like your set up. Otherwise, I like keeping this sucker around.

u/wanakoworks · 16 pointsr/AskPhotography

most definitely possible. you can either use an EF-E mount adapter like metabones or sigma, OR my preferred method to get the best quality (requires some DIY), is to get a set of these, lightly and i do mean LIGHTLY taper out the mount to the right shape of the lens mount. Tapping the end of the tool with one of these, for stubborn spots. Don't worry if you slip a bit and hit the sensor. Anything that shows up in your images, you can crop out in post.

Clean it up and polish it down with this. Best stuff in the business.

You'll be 🔪🔪☠KILLING IT 🔪🔪☠ in the photography game afterwards. All you pics will be 🔥🔥LIT🧯🧯!

u/AlicSkywalker · 5 pointsr/buildapc

Yes, this is a much cheaper option, just need some labour hour:

This'll probably work too: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000KL4UI2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_dp_T2_6O.pzbMNCAMXZ

To save some time, this will do the trick nice and fast: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LBT3AZU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_dp_T2_YQ.pzb7E4XC6F

u/JVonDron · 2 pointsr/Leatherworking

Budget?

under $20 - Books - I highly recommend the Stohlman hand sewing book and his leather cases series, it should be required reading for beginners.

$25 - strap cutter

Garland Rawhide mallets - American made, will last damn near forever, and deliver hard hits to tools without damaging the end of the tool. I mostly use a #2 split head for driving punches and setting rivets, and a #3 unweighted for tooling and smaller work.

Knives - A good utility or rotary is always a good idea, but one thing most beginners won't have is a round knife. Unfortunately, most new ones are crap and don't hold an edge very well. I haven't used a newer Osborne's but I'd trust them over most other brands available today unless you go to a custom knife maker. The other option is a vintage Gomph or Rose brand knife. Unfortunately, they're no longer in business, but Bruce Johnson specializes in selling vintage tools. He is also very helpful if you have any other questions.

With your gift + this you could have minutes of fun.

u/Circle_in_a_Spiral · 1 pointr/camping

I've had one of these for decades. Pretty much indestructible.

u/Smaskifa · 2 pointsr/firewood

The Fiskars X27 is my go-to axe. Its light weight is great for endurance and it's pretty effective at splitting. For stubborn wood with knots, I use a Stihl maul. They sell for around $100. If the wood still won't split, I use wedges and a Fiskars 8 pound sledge hammer. If wedges and maul fail, I use a chainsaw to noodle it.

u/bonafidebob · 3 pointsr/software

These three hammers also accomplish the same tasks. ...generally speaking.

Don't pick the wrong one.

u/hobbesbobbes · 4 pointsr/ArtisanVideos

Wow, quick with the sarcasm and insults. I'm agreeing with you. Hardness is more important than sharpness. I've split whole cords of wood with a dull maul like this one. Just because you can split with a sharp axe doesn't mean it's necessary.

These work just fine. They are also pretty cheap, you don't need something fancy if you are just splitting smallish logs. You can get a real ax and splitting wedges if you are doing bigger camping. (Note: no affiliate links, I don't work for estwing. Please no ban.)

Get yourself a Ford special tool and preform from percussive maintenance.

u/Jared187 · 2 pointsr/Blacksmith

This huge 20 lb sledge should work. It's steel made for high impact, although it may require some face smoothing.

u/zorro_usa84 · 1 pointr/MechanicAdvice

Thank you for the suggestion, u/munscza. Is this hammer (https://www.amazon.com/Estwing-Strike-Drilling-Crack-Hammer/dp/B00433SC4Q) a good fit to knock the tire or an over kill?

u/Xaphedo · 1 pointr/MetaVerseRP

Faint is testing the feel of the heaviest sledgehammer he could find, when the start of a loud sound makes him reflexively disappear into thin air.

He hears the rest of the sound while phased out, still managing to make out the quite obvious cause for it. 'Something blew up.'

After assuring himself that his immediate location wasn't about to get immediately swept up in the aftermath of the blast, he phases in, jumps at a 45° angle in the direction of the blast, and phases out mid-jump, sledgehammer still firmly in his grasp.

u/helium_farts · 2 pointsr/standupshots

Though if you really want to make an impact then you really should be using a splitting maul.

How to Speed Up a Computer
^^^By ^^^ArchDucky

Step 1 : Open up the case and blow out the dust with a can of compressed air. Do this outside or in the bedroom of an enemy.
Step 2 : Run Windows Disc Cleanup, CCleaner and Malware Bytes. They are free so don't pay for them.
Step 3 : Run Windows Defrag several times. (Several means more than once.)

And if that doesn't work, purchase this device from amazon and apply liberally to the inside and outside of the case.
