Nylon can be used on either side and rubber on the other. The rubber is not quite as hard as Wire that is coated or easily damaged by metal hammers can be hardened with either of these compounds. Silver plated and silver filled wire, as well as craft wire, can be worked with either side. The nylon side on the wire on a metal anvil will flatten it without damaging it too much, whereas the rubber side on a rubber block will help harden it without damaging it.
No, this is not designed for that purpose. There is a separate hammer I own for that purpose. This is what I use to bend and shape wire around forms. By using a nonmetallic head, I don't have to worry that my wire jewelry will scratch or deter.
The only thing I do with it is harden copper wires and plated copper wires for my jewelry and ear wires, 20-gauge. The same gauge stainless steel wire is also available in 22 gauge.
As long as you know how to do it, you'll be able to do it.

Rather than having its head glued vertically to the handle, the head of the hammer is at an angle. In this case, the screw-driver There is an offset between the tips and the head of the hammer, so they don't match. As far as I can tell, glue was used to glue on the head, as evidenced by glue on the handle. There were deep pits in the barrel of one of the heads.
In order to flatten an eye pin I had made just moments ago, I tried using the rubber end. Despite being light, the rubber end was still heavy enough to take a few blows. A nylon end also worked for me to achieve the same result. The wire was flattened more easily by it, though the heft was again lacking. Furthermore, the ends of the mallet look like they may come off on their own at some point because the attachments are not firmly secured. It was an upside, as there was no marring of the wire when it was all.
After purchasing it several months ago, I have now used it 5 times. I really like this. In order to make a ring a bit larger, I simply cut it shorter and it did not mark the gold or silver. In addition to copper, I tried it on iron as well.
The size of a grain of rice. Work that requires heavy lifting is not appropriate. Screwing the mallets into the handles is independent of one another. Once they are used, they loosen, so they have to be tightened by hand. If you are going to mold or fold metal repetitively or in a heavy duty way, I would not recommend it.
The little hammer works great! This item isn't just ideal for restoring bent (certain) jewelry to its original form, but it can also be used to reshape other precious metal items (i. e. Compote, candle holders and other sterling items) and even tin and copper! It is a great tool for its price and very useful! DWO, you are right.
The quality of the hammer is very poor. It appears as though the grip is 45 degrees off of As a result, the hammer head tilts pretty much 45 degrees when it fits in your hand. It is appropriate to include an extra tip with the price.
I will be able to remodel my dollhouse using this product. I will be extremely happy with it.
