7-10 lb. Actually I don't use a deadblow for fretwork. I prefer a small 1" diameter steel hammer with plastic or hard rubber faces. Al |

Here's the one I use. It works incredibly well for me. I'm not sure of its weight, but it's the 1 1/4" size (that's the face diam.). I got it from hammersource.com. Can't recommend it more highly. I use the hard nylon (white) face. ![]() |

9oz deadblow, and let the hammer do the work rather than your muscle. Colin |

Kim I just read about a supercyclone making landfall in Qeensland. I hope that you and your family are safe. Al |

Thanks for the concern Al ![]() Us sandgropers here in the west are all do'in fine. That cockeyed bob is on the other side of the island about 3000 miles away. Could'nt even fly a kite here today. I am a bit concerned however for my inlaws, they are not too far south of the first one "Larry" that crossed the coast this morning and flattened a town named Inisfail and there is now another one called "Wati" that has formed in the same area from where Harry launched from. ![]() ![]() Fingers crossed folks for all the people along the upper east coast of AU. ![]() Cheers Kim |
