Unless you are working on something like an airplane engine, I would say the Buddy Blasters are not essential. The flat flat are what I am waiting for. Those will be very nice indeed. The mini max is a great hammer to have, seems like no one else offers anything like it.
i shouldn't say this, but somebody in production flagged me down today. They had a bin of blue hammers, with standard size blue flat-flats mixed in, and asked, "are you going sell these"? Apparently, we have a some blue and red standard size flat-flats made and branded now. I need to get a better assessment before i make a general post.
Real quick, I think I missed it... What is the difference between TC's dead blow and buddy blaster? Just got the thor and mini flat flat the other day and will continue buying their hammers. Thanks again Rick
