    Some fine shots of the 22oz Estwing wafflehead

    Seriously, I think the first works best because you can see the hammer the least, but I think this would work out much better with a couple of pieces of black foam board as a base/backing and maybe a small nail or drywall screw poked through the base from the back side to strike the bulb against, instead of a big ol' framing hammer.

    A man that knows his tools, But I didn't think it was 22 oz.

    I will be getting more light bulds Wed. to try more shots. I only had six to work with and four of them I liked.

    Thank you all.
