Why Weren’t Hammers Designed With Magnetic Handles In The First Place?

Why Weren’t Hammers Designed With Magnetic Handles In The First Place?


Designer Jung Soo Park has managed to drastically improve the functionality and capabilities of the lowly hammer. But he didn’t accessorize it with useless add-ons only good for attacking non-existant zombies. Instead, he added a magnet to the handle for wrangling nails. Genius.

And while Park’s Neo Hammer isn’t available for sale — it’s just a concept — even the most inept handyman should be able to hack their own tool with this functionality. Just find yourself some strong glue, and an even stronger magnet, and you’ll never have to hold another nail in your mouth again. [Jung Soo Park via The Fancy]
