Wooden hammer cutout in plywood for crafts, 3–50 cm

The invitations to the topping-out ceremony have gone out. The craft table is set with paints and brushes. Only one thing is missing: a design that really looks like craftsmanship. This wooden hammer cutout in 3 mm plywood is made for projects like this. It has a clear hammer silhouette and is left natural. You can paint it, stick things on it or use it as it is. That's how a simple wooden hammer becomes your own decoration.

What changes for you

• You design it freely, just as you like – because the plywood is untreated and takes paint and glue well.
• You get your wood cutout almost made to measure. You can choose a height from 3 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps. So it fits your project, not the other way round.
• You save yourself sawing and sanding – the hammer is laser-cut and reaches you with smooth edges.
• You can plan group projects without reordering – because the cutout is available singly or as a set of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces.
• You're holding a neatly finished piece made in Germany – produced in Thuringia.

Why this wooden hammer makes a difference in everyday life

Ready-made decorations off the shelf can quickly look generic. A design you've made yourself tells a little story. The hammer silhouette stands for craftsmanship, hard work and getting stuck in. Use it on a greetings card, on a present or in a shop window. You decide the size and quantity yourself. So you always have exactly the right piece for every project.

Material & finish

The hammer is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. That gives it smooth edges and the typical brown laser edge, which gives the design a clear outline. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor stained. So you can paint it, colour it and stick things on it. As a natural material, every piece shows its own grain. Brightness, fine textures and small knots can vary. This is not a defect – it's what makes every piece unique. The cutout is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

Good to know about the hammer

The hammer has long been a symbol of craftsmanship. At a topping-out ceremony, for example, the last nail is traditionally driven in with due ceremony. That's why the hammer silhouette suits topping-out ceremonies, house moves and end-of-apprenticeship exams so well. It also works as a decoration and gift idea for anyone who likes to get stuck in.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Store the cutout somewhere dry and simply wipe off dust with a dry cloth. As the wood is untreated, avoid constant moisture. That way your design keeps its natural look for a long time.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint the wooden hammer or stick things on it? Yes. The plywood is untreated. You can paint it, colour it and stick things on it – with standard craft paints and glues.

Where does the brown edge come from? The cutout is laser-cut. This creates the typical brown laser edge, which draws a sharp outline around the design. The edges are smooth.

How wide is the hammer at a given height? As a reference: at a height of 10 cm the width is 4.5 cm. The proportions stay the same across all sizes.

Do all the cutouts look exactly the same? The shape is identical, the wood is not. As a natural material, it varies in shade and grain and sometimes has small knots. Every piece is one of a kind.

What really counts is a moment. Someone holds your self-designed hammer in their hands. And they realise: you came up with this just for them. Simply choose your height and quantity – and get started.
