You asked for it...
Marty K. once told me collecting hammers was addictive.
Apparently, he was right...

Thanks. I had an old Charlet, but the pick was obviously a different gen than that one.

Nice warm up there, Monkey o' Steel...
Geez, almost 20% of your stuff aren't even hammers...(ha!)...
From a post a few months ago:
You heard Marty is redoing his hammer chart? Up to over 25 models now? Yee ha.

hey there say, coachmaster... our mom ALWAYS taught us to have a good hammer on hand! hmmm, she was not a rock climber, though chappy became one... ;)
her dad was in construction though and had his own buisness (he came across on ellis island)...
well---------thanks for the neat hammer post/thread... due to my mom, i have always had a good hammer through my years of having a home with kids... (sure come in handy when you ARE MOVING and need to hang up pictures in the new home)---though:
i reckon a rock climbing hammer is of much more importance
when you ARE MOVING along the rocks.... :)
say---how many have tried the ol' "use a rock for a hammer" when you've been caught without one (NOT on the rocks, though, i mean at home?)...
well---perhaps one day i will post up the hammer that was---it keeps falling apart! (its some neat old, oldfashioned type deal--unless i through it, last summer) :O
thanks for the climbing lesson, in hammer... :)

Lars,
Yes. 2nd Bolt from a hook. Rachel McCollum looking on.
You should get up there this fall in the cool weather and send it. Sure, it's thin to the point of being annoying, and sustained, but it is not very long. Actually, since it only goes as high up as we could climb at the time, I figure someone should get up there and do the crux, which obviously is above our high point... :-)
Cheers,
Kris
