Update October 29, 2024

I have 9 DAMMERRs, two Zephyrs and one drill holder on hand.







May 12, 2024

I finished up 10 hammers and 10 drill holders.

April 15, 2024

All of the hammers and all of the drill holders are gone but I have the materials ordered to make more and will try to get them done before too long.

January 30, 2024

I have just finished six compact hammers and they are selling already. Three of these ended up with the carabiner hole close to the bottom edge and the other three came out better. The nicer ones are going for $200 plus postage and the other three for $100 plus postage.
Email me for more information.

Welcome to DAMMERR.com


DAMMERRs are carefully crafted, scientifically designed rock climbing hammers. Each DAMMERR is hand made and is to some degree unique.

Please note that DAMMERR is correctly spelled with two R's and in caps. DAMMERR is a mashup of my name and the word hammer.

A Little About Me

I am a climber and prefer back country trad routes where I can climb at my level without the heckling of other climbers. I occasionally make first ascents of routes placing bolts where necessary but I have never used a power drill.

I am an engineer and taught engineering at a university for 30 years. I have retired from teaching but continue to work as a forensic engineer.

There is a YouTube video showing most of the steps in making these hammer heads and the handles. This was my first effort working with titanium so there are many screw-ups and ruined tools. The video is very long.
