I ordered a lead knock-off hammer from the Roadster Factory. When I received it, I discovered a large crack fissured into the lead by the handle, so sent it back. No big deal, perfection is for gods

I have seen wooden tools that are shaped like the knockoff itself. You just fit it over the knockoff like a box-end wrench and wrench it off (or on) without damaging the chrome. Check the major suppl

That's right. *If* you use the right hammer, and *if* they aren't too tight, the damage is minimal. Doesn't really hurt the chrome at all, but the metal underneath tends to mushroom just a bit. My S

So what do you all do with yours? I'm wondering if maybe the best thing isn't just to buy a cheap hard rubber hammer. Terry, Last month I put those questions to the folks who make my wheels, Dayton.

I want to thank everyone for their advice on hammers. Looks like a lead hammer is the best idea, with maybe using a two-by-four intermediary or making a wood wrench, which is easy enough. But I have
