Wooden lump hammer 'Bello' – plywood 3 mm, 3–50 cm

The craft afternoon is planned. The paints are ready. Only the right motif is still missing. On building sites, the lump hammer is affectionately called the "Bello hammer". This wooden version gives you a silhouette that suits your workshop decor perfectly. It is unfinished, smoothly laser cut and ready for your ideas. Use it as a gift tag for the tradesperson in the family. Scatter it on the table at a topping-out ceremony. Or display it on the shop counter. The little hammer quickly turns an idea into something you can see.

Why this wooden lump hammer makes a difference

A ready-cut motif takes care of the hardest part for you: sawing it out. You get a clear, precise silhouette. You can spend your time on the fun part – decorating. A simple piece of wood becomes a personalised gift. Or a table decoration on a craft theme. Or a shop window display where the motif is recognisable at first glance.

Material & finish

The lump hammer is laser cut from 3 mm plywood. This gives clean, smooth edges and a precise shape that is comfortable to hold. The wood is untreated. It is neither varnished nor glazed. Paint, glue and pens adhere well. Wood is a natural material and never completely uniform. Differences in shade, fine grain patterns and small knots are normal. Each piece is one of a kind.

How to use the wooden lump hammer

• For a topping-out ceremony: place a small hammer at each seat as table scatter or a tag. The theme of the day is literally on the table.
• As a gift tag: write a name on it and attach it to a toolbox or a voucher for a DIY fan. A personal greeting that lasts.
• At nursery or craft club: every child paints their own hammer. At the end, they proudly take home something they made themselves.
• In shops: hang it in the window of a DIY store or joinery, or use it for a trades promotion. It goes up quickly. The hammer shape makes the theme clear at once.
• For anniversaries and company parties: paint or decorate larger quantities as matching table and room decorations. With sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces, there is little planning involved.

Good to know about the lump hammer

In German, it is called a "Fäustel" because it is used with one hand – with the fist ("Faust"). On building sites, the hammer is also traditionally called "Bello". That is why the motif is so popular for anything to do with trades. It suits a topping-out ceremony, a company anniversary or a gift for anyone who likes to get hands-on.

Care & durability

It needs very little care. Keep the unfinished wooden cutout dry and avoid constant moisture. This way the natural plywood keeps its shape for a long time. You can keep decorating it whenever you like.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint the lump hammer straight away? Yes. The plywood is untreated and neither varnished nor glazed. You can paint it, stick things on it or colour it without any preparation.

Why does the cutout have a brown rim? The lump hammer is laser cut. The brown rim forms naturally during cutting. It also gives smooth, clean edges.

Do all cutouts look exactly the same? The shape is always exactly the same. The wood itself is a natural material. Shade, grain and small knots vary. Each piece is one of a kind.

How wide is the lump hammer at my chosen height? For reference: at a height of 10 cm, the width is 3.8 cm. The proportions stay the same for all sizes.

This is about more than a wooden cutout. It is about the moment a plain piece of plywood becomes your own motif. You paint it, write on it and give it away. Just choose your size and quantity. You design the rest.
