I plan on helping with a Habitat for Humanity house building project in June. I know I will be driving lots of nails of various sizes. I currently own a 16 Oz claw hammer, but know from last year that my hand and arm got tired after a couple of days driving nails. I suffer from carpal tunnel to a small degree. I was looking at the Borgs yesterday and they must have at least 14 or 15 different brands and styles of hammers (Estwing, Husky, DeWalt, Dead On Tools, Plumb, QLT, Hart, Nupla, Pull'R Holding Company, Klien, Kobalt, Stanley, Bostitch, Wise, task Force, and Vaughan)
What is a good hammer for general framing and sheeting work that is comfortable to work with and of good quality. I'm not interested in spending $80+ for a hammer. I'm thinking that maybe a 20 or 22 Oz hammer might be the way to go. Your thoughts are appreciated.
