Yeah, it looks cool! Easy to find in a pile of tools as well.

I like the hammer but I’m not sure if is it takes 2 inch nails or not cuz I’ve tb2 15 oz the old version and I really enjoy it but it’s been 10 years and the hammer claw starts to shrink and that’s why I wanna buy new one but hopefully it can takes 2 inch nails

I may check out the Redesign Stiletto mini 14oz but I use a Paslode CF325XP cordless nailer for all my framing.

the new handles create vibration compared to the tibone 2, they need to make a softer grip, thanks.

Sorry buddy, but the estwing looks good the way it is, nothing needs to be replaced with estwing. The other hammers are cool to though

Saludos espero su respuesta bien el video Que para cambiarle el el mango al martillo dijiste que habría que cortarlo no hay otra opción que sólo le puede retirar el mango sin cortarlo y ponerle nuevo y si no te gusta el color nuevo ponerle el mismo color no hay otra forma de Sacar el mango sin cortarlo para que no se pierda

@@MarkThomasBuilder Hey Mark the other day I asked you about which compressor you liked,well I went ahead and purchased a ridgid 6 gallon pancake compressor. Which you said you were testing. My question to you is does the regulator valve to dial in your preferred psi for your tool that you are going to be using. Is it supposed to bleed air when you back the valve off of say from 100psi to 50psi?or did I get a faulty compressor?

Blue, Orange or Black. Question, is there an advantage of a milled faced compared to a smooth? Thanks Mark!

@MarkThomasBuilder

The milled face seems to hit the nail with less slipping, making it more efficient.

@Dirtyharry70585

Mill face is for framing.

@beholdcaesar

I assume using the flat face is preferred for finish nails, so that the surface is the siding doesn't get marked by the millig

@platoscavealum902

🔨 When doing rough framing, a milled face hammer can easily drive nails that are not perpendicular to the hammer face - without slipping. (In other words, to prevent slipping, the milled hammer face groves "catch" the nail head edges - specifically when striking a nail at an angle that is significantly more or less than 90 degrees.)

Will a T40 bit work for replacing the head?

@MarkThomasBuilder

3 ай бұрын

No you need a T45.

I like the Martinez its the same weight and a heavier swing and it was the original stiletto 2.0 and the interchangeable head is epic go from a 2lb sledge or a finish head changes pretty quick with a 12point 3/8 box end no drill needed haha

Can some just answer if it takes the 2” nails? Yes or no??

I just went out and tried a 2" nail and the answer is no. A 2" nail only sticks out about a 1/4" (or less) past the face.
