Make a hammer from aluminum and brass as you learn basic metal machining techniques.
The hammer, which will be yours to keep, will have a brass head and will be useful as a "positioning" hammer. There is a $24 materials fee, payable to the instructor at the first class. If you want a hammer head other than brass that's 1¼ inch diameter, bring the material to the class.
Machining operations that will be covered in the class include basic metal turning, external thread cutting, knurling, chamfering, cutting off, milling a flat on a round workpiece, drilling, and tapping threads.
Before the class, students should view the following YouTube videos on how to make this type of hammer:
part 1.
part 2
part 3
part 4
