You know, there exists a rubber hammer that people use for all kinds of things.

Rubber, nylon, copper, leather, wood... All sorts of soft hammers.

Yeah, I feel like the cork hammer would be great tool to have for assembling large Lego builds. My human thumbs get sore after repeatedly pressing Lego studs, and I'm hoping that the cork would be soft enough to not damage the bricks.

Beat me to the punch!

There's even multiple kinds, anything from regular rubber-capped hammers, leather hammers for gunsmithing, and even dead blow hammers.

Is there a cork hammer? Rubber wouldn't fall apart like cork would.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I imagine cork wouldn't last as long as the alternatives.

We could get more and play table croquet.
