Meet the sledgehammer. Comprised of a 15-20 pound, solid metal head on a several pound shaft. The main function is to destroy. You'd have to get really creative to build something with this. | ©BullyBeefs |
I spent two solid hours swinging this thing against a concrete sidewalk. I had to take a few breaks to go lie down in the grass and stretch so my spine wouldn't get any more messed up than it already is. I filled two fifty gallon tubs with broken concrete. I couldn't begin to guess how much they weighed.
This tool is all muscle. There's not much to it but aim, swing, and pray. I think its been outdated by the jackhammer, but what can you do when its all you have?
I'm going to be sore as all get out, but its sort of nice feeling weak and powerless. And hey, at least I was earning $30/hour doing this. Generous hiring.
The sledgehammer reminds me of the classic melee weapon in Fallout 2. :Smack, sliiiide:
