Well, the first I made. First, I'd like to thank Mike Henderson. His tutorial on making a plane hammer started me on this. Mine's a bit different since I don't have a lathe.

And since the first few tries didn't work out, I could have bought a couple LV plane hammers for what I have in materials. But this one's mine.
The handle is white oak and the wooden face is crab apple harvested from a tree I cut down in my front yard. And I must say that I'm much happier with it on this hammer than I was with it in my yard :D.
