Lol Ouch. I can honestly say I have felt your pain. And I have the ER bill to prove it!
I used to sink a 16d sinker in a set and a swing, and do it all day long...Even with a Vaughn (better with an Estwing). And I've got the waffle prints on my thumbs to prove it!
Try it some time with a 3lb anvil hammer and a spike 1/2"x12"... That'll wake you up.Do that a few times and you figure out how to aim real good.
I swung a hammer next to a couple of honest to God framers, and I..........was embarrassed, I thought I was strong but nothing equals experience and the endurance years of repetition give! You can swing a hammer all day and wear yourself out with not much to show for it, especially when you are doing it next to an experience framer. Made me glad that most of the time I was running copper or installing Lab fixtures. Same goes for hanging drywall, and why I agree with Mike Rowe and also why I am more concerned with these jobs going to illegals instead of our kids.
No thanks! I'll continue to stick to what I'm good at and drivin nails or spikes for a livin ain't it!
Are you sure?It'll teach you how to dance...
He's not ignorant of anything! He is a professional troll!
