<DIV align=left><FONT face=Arial size=2>Okay, alright already.=
Here is a picture of my key whacker. I've been using the=
double-hammer type for several years now. My first ones were=
epoxied together, but then I started noticing a direct=
correlation between the amount of time spent making a=
whacker and how fast they disappeared. This one is just taped=
together with rubber electrical tape - the rubber tape keeps the=
hammers very secure (no movement between hammers) and provides a=
nice grip material (I think I may even have duct tape under the=
rubber tape). I've had this whacker for way more than a year -=
maybe about two now.</FONT></DIV>

though. Works great and feels great.</FONT></DIV>
