I like to make miniatures of some of my projects, usually ahead of time to work out scale and proportion. In this case I decided to make a one-third scale version of my popular plane hammer. I have a few mini tools and thought this would be a nice addition to the set.
The hammer is 4 inches long, the head is brass, turned from a piece of 1/4" brass rod. The handle and wooden face are bubinga and the wedge in the handle is maple.
Here it is adjusting my Veritas mini shoulder plane.
This was turned on my Delta midi lathe and as most of you know, took longer than the full scale version to make.
Enjoy!
