The Ball Peen Hammer Head is the steel head of a ball peen hammer, taken off its handle. It is a tool part for rebuilding hammers and a little steel for smelting.
Fitted to a Medium Handle with the Assemble Medium Implement recipe, it becomes a Ball-peen Hammer. That hammer is a core Blacksmithing tool. The recipe needs Maintenance level 1.
Heads come from taking an old Ball-peen Hammer apart, or from forging a new one at a forge with Blacksmithing level 4. The Carpenter is the best occupation for materials. It starts with the most Carpentry skill. For Welding, the Welder starts strongest.
Uses
The Assemble Medium Implement recipe joins the head to a Medium Handle. A hammer or mallet and a sharp knife are needed and kept. The result is a Ball-peen Hammer, which the Forge Axe Head recipe and other smithing work call for.
The Research Craft option teaches three forging recipes. These are Forge Claw Hammer Head, Forge Club Hammer Head and Forge Smithing Hammer Head. A single head is a cheap way to learn a set of hammer recipes.
A damaged or spare head can be melted for steel. Smelt Steel From Small Steel Item turns it into one Steel Chunk at an Advanced Furnace. Smelt Small Steel Item fills a ceramic crucible with steel at the same furnace.
How to Get Ball Peen Hammer Head
The Dismantle Medium Implement recipe takes a Ball-peen Hammer apart with a hammer, club hammer or mallet. The tool is kept. It gives back the head and a broken handle.
The Forge Ball-peen Hammer Head recipe makes a new head at a Simple Forge or better. It takes four charcoal and one Steel Chunk (Pierced). A smithing hammer, tongs and a metalworking punch are needed and kept. The recipe needs Blacksmithing level 4 and must be learned first.
