Stop! Hammer time!
Rip my straight peen after coming out
No, these are electrician’s hammers

My time has come.
I’m what the aerospace industry calls a “surface enhancement engineer.” A fancy way of calling me a peener. I mostly work with CNC air blast shot peening machines but the principle is essentially the same as a ball peen hammer.

Would you prefer us to call you a peener?

Don’t ever cross the peens.
