So you think your sledgehammer is big?

Take a sledgehammer and wrap an old sweater around it. This is your "shovelglove." Every week day morning, set a timer for 14 minutes. Use the shovelglove to perform shoveling, butter churning, and wood chopping motions until the timer goes off. Stop. Rest on weekends and holidays. Baffled? Intrigued? Charmed? Discuss here.

I beg to differ....

150lb hammer. How is he even lifting that?!

Ajax from the movie Troy. If the 7 foot guy yelling and rushing at you isn't bad enough, he adds an equally big and nasty war hammer to the mix.

Only 15000 more spikes to go. Lucky the sledgehammer only weighs as much as a small elephant. Imagine if it was heavy?!

You think you've got problems? This is glued to my hand!

Thorgrim tries to introduce Conan to his war hammer. Quit moving your head, it won't work right!

Yes, that's a drill on one end and a rocket thruster on the other.

Typical anime, they always have to overdo everything. I do doubt the ability to swing that in a way that has any semblance of a sledgehammer style blow. :D

Bushranger: It's okay though, because there's a special exemption clause in the laws of physics for badass lolitas with magic talking hammers. ;)

Thalia: Well, Freud says that everybody's compensating for something, right?

Hi Bushranger!
Delayed response here, but I just had to say, I really can't fathom how that first guy is *actually* lifting that hammer if it is, indeed, really, 150 lbs...
Maybe it's plastic! :mrgreen:
LOL
