How many hammers did have to buy for all your project or just buy new heads. Love your exercise nail pulling. Are you doing this alone, and working at your jobs too?
I have never had to replace the head yet. My wood handle stiletto I've had to replace the handle about 7 times... I actually favor that hammer because it's even more shock resistant you just can't pull nails like this... as far as my job I'm a general contractor with no employees I do everything alone and I throw RUclips clips up as well in a little bit of spare time I have. To top it off I'm also building a 10,000 square-foot Barn house/shop/venue...
I thought I spent a lot when I bought a desalt framing hammer at 50$, I’m a union carpenter so I only really frame concrete forms for pouring and of course I do trim as well!!! In commercial I don’t see the need for the stiletto hammer but definitely nice I’m assuming Home Depot or Lowe’s will make a knock off pretty close to it eventually
Oh it’s 100% worth it. Maybe not for you, but for framers, it’s so worth it. I used a husky 22 oz hammer for a while, then upgraded to the wood handled stiletto, which is like $100 and absolutely loved it. After a while tho I didn’t like needing to baby my hammer just cus it’s wood, so I bought a tb3, which was $260 and i will never go back to a steel hammer. Some might say im a hammer snob now.
You can use the claw sideways for a similar effect however the lightweight properties will save our health I'm 31 and I'm using a similar hammer after seeing my pap get hurt :( 😞. Strong work ethic shouldn't have to cause health issues
I don’t understand how a lighter hammer will drive a nail as good as a heavier hammer. It either has a longer handle or you are swinging it faster. It’s momentum that drives a nail, which is mass times velocity. I’m just trying to wrap my head around how this hammer works.
@@endlessempirecustomcreatio816 I am not trying to argue with you, I was legitimately curious how it worked. I researched it and the reason why a lighter (titanium) hammer works better than a steel hammer has to do with the efficiency of the collision. The energy transfer from the hammer to the nail is more efficient so you don’t need as much mass to drive the nail assuming your impact velocity is the same. I actually found your video quite good and I was asking an honest question.
@@SuzukiKid400 it's simple physics, the lighter hammer can be swung at a higher velocity vs a heavy hammer being swung slower.. force, mass, velocity etc...
had a guy showing around his Stiletto on a job site, it was cool, but he pulled out a Milwaukee hammer when he started doing framing work. The Stiletto was too expensive to take a scratch.
They'll take a lot of abuse Ive used mine for heavy concrete for about 4 years its built like a tank but the claw dulls really quick when you start chipping concrete
That is also the benefit of a curved claw hammer over a straight claw hammer. If someone made a framing hammer with a curved claw they'd get rich quick.
I pull out nails with back claw when nails are in a stud, by qpplying the pressure not 2 inches away from the hammer head, but at the end of the hammer. Works everytime. This seems like a biased demonstration.
The true secret is conning guys into wasting their money on a piece of shit hammer that has no warranty so when your new hammer breaks in half your screwed
You can get the updated model for just over $200 now. The money isn't for the side pull or nail set, but for the Titanium regardlessof brand. Things incredible. Swings amazing and transfers energy to the nail better than steel. Best part is when I'm running around all day to assist various crews on different sites, do warranties, punch out, demo etc it's not noticeable on my belt. That way I can also carry my cats claw or all the random assortment of tools needed for the specific trade I'm on at that moment. I'm in my 20s so I don't know what the long term damage of a 21oz to 28oz hammer will cause. I'd rather get a head of the game.
Legend has it, he’s still hanging on that hammer trying to pull the nail out
Less talk more demonstrations. Love it!
I have a TB3, it has a better nail set for duplex nails, will never switch to any other hammer
You shouldn’t need to use the nail set for a duplex nail unless you’re lazy
@@matthewclark5495 how does that even make sense
That nail pulled is cool but, the claws can be used exactly the same to side pull. Hammer is well worth it though.
Discovered the side pull by accident last week. Life-changer lol.
My stiletto whistles while I work

Best my own personal building
is the 2x4 supposed to be level, straight claws are never going to be good at pulling nails?
Good video.
You’re lucky you have a hammer I use rocks

Not even close to the same clearly you don't have one

I'm not here to argue with you I'm here to give you a fact of my personal experience

percentage of force created by swinging transferred to the object is different titanium vs steel

Good video thanks. Now I want one haha
Totally agreed! That Stiletto is amazing for sure!
Just need to get over the fear of the price tag lol
Well ain't you slicker socks on a rooster.those hammers are neat. Expensive though
Dealing with the shoulder 😩 now
