Junk Drawer Hammer
Decided to fix up a small hammer. New lessons were learned, and I'm mostly pleased with the result. Hope you enjoy the video.

That turned out as a sweet hammer. It would be great for building miniature items, like Doll Houses, small boxes, Model Train buildings/structures....MAYBE even the spaceship toolbox?

That seemed like a fun project Ben, so glad that you were pleased with the result, as you should be, that gel stain made all the difference ! I'm all too familiar with that oops, something smells of burning moment, some wood just demands more care and respect ! Cheers, AndyC.

Hey Ben, I’ve seen you use your belt sander on a few projects now. In a future video can you show how you get it mounted upside down to use? It is a great idea and would like to do something similar with mine. Thanks
@mrbenmall

Unfortunately, the sander I purchase is no longer available on Amazon. It was called "TACKLIFE Belt Sander 3×18-Inch" and it was designed to use either way. The top is flat and it came with two clamps so you can affix it to a bench as I did. I specifically bought that one because of that feature. I don't know what to tell you other than good luck. I hope you can find something similar. THanks!
