  • I get you on this, all you really want to know is will this hammer do a good job of knocking some 80mm wood screws into a tiled wall.

  • Ha, precisely! I know it works as a spanner, but what’s its hammering capacity?!

    It’s more a case of not really giving a shit about destructive testing, or how many times it can do job X against the clock. It’s way more useful to know how the tool performs in its intended work environment. It could have the greatest motor in the world, but if its ergonomics are bad, you’ll hate using it etc.
    But I suspect the whole reason you have these hobbyist testers setting up these tests is simply because it would take forever for them to actually accumulate sufficient time working with the tool to make an assessment compared to quick garage based experiments. That and head to head destructive testing is clearly better for YouTube views.

    Fuck me I sound like an old man.
