Type of Hammer Is?
« on: January 21, 2015, 09:02:23 AM »
Can anyone tell me what this hammer is used for?
(Forgive me if I have already posted this here; if memory serves
I tried but couldn't get the photo to upload so I deleted the whole deal)
Don't own this piece. It is on Craigslist as part of a lot of tools for sale.

It looks like a tire hammer missing the rubber piece on the poll.

And, to add to it, commonly used, when I was doing tire repairs*, mainly for big truck and similar tires.  The tire stand, powered entirely by teenager power, was much faster.

*This is back when the tires were made from dinosaur skins.
