Rubber Mallet: Shaped much like a club hammer, but with a rubber head instead of metal, mallets are not used to drive nails but to add some force when driving stakes or chisels, building furniture, working with upholstery, or similar tasks where you need more power than your hands provide alone, yet you don’t want to damage the surface upon which you are working. When it comes to weight, the Stubby is just right; at 12 ounces, it isn't too heavy, nor is it too light. Steel transmits a great deal of vibration, however, which means you could end up with sore wrists and arms by the end of your work session.The tool is well-balanced for a steady swing and comes wrapped in an ergonomic handle that minimizes impact vibrations. If the hammer seems safe, use your other hand to hold a nail in position at the base of the nail, as far from the intended place of impact as possible, and then bring the hammer head down onto the head of the nail to drive it into the wood.
