Not enough umph! in a rubber lead shot hammer!

Do not use copper!

Do not use hard lead!......as in original tool kit!

Use only very soft lead!.........I'm sure there are others, but the only 
source I know of is British Wire Wheels, 1650 Mansfield St, Santa Cruz, CA 
95062.......408 479 4495.......Hammer 4.5 lbs. solid soft leat head, steel 
shank, 
rubber grip....about $15......(last I bought.....may be more now...<g>.....)  I 
promise it will never scratch your knock-offs unless you have some dust on them 
(wipe off first, eh?).......The hammer will eventually pound itself into a 
grotesque flared ball........but your chorme will be pristine.....I have a new 
one in each of my wired autos......and a shop one you would laugh at!

The 'Thors' and such look nice........use them at shows......but keep your 
ole trusty handy! 

Good luck!

Clark
