Last night, Frank Machado of Two Basterds instructed us on the many aspects of hammer restoration and re-handling. He also gave some great demonstrations and showed off some of his awesome handiwork, too. He brought a number of hammers to sell also. I only bought three myself. They are great hammers and they are beautifully handled.
Everyone left with a hammer as part of the class. @jbrown885 and another previous DMS member Thurman Mayne also attended. We had lots of people stop by to check out the class @Raymond, @Mrholthaus and @kthompson395 to name but a few.
We will definitely offer the class again. Frank and I discussed it last night and it will likely be in mid-late May.
Here’s a photo of the group:
