This is how I have used this tool successfully in the past:
THOR HAMMER: When completing a ground up restoration on an Austin Healey
3000, use this special tool to swing very hard at knock offs to get the
wheels on so you can drive your car for the first time in 6 months. If you
are in California during the summer, also be sure to be doing this work
wearing sandals. Upon successfully misstriking the knock off, be sure to
plunge copper end of hammer into big toe with full force, breaking the toe
and causing substantial amounts of bleeding. Striking the toe in this
manner will make driving the car impossible, not to mention walking for for
about a week.
