Billboard: Hammerin' man

Challenge #81 in the The Art Director series. Hosted by jezsik.

Challenge has finished

A large, family-owned, hardware store wants a billboard to advertise their business (and divert traffic from the nearby big box stores). The patriarch of the family had the nickname "Hammerin' Man" and they want to build on that. They need an image of a construction hammer that will fit the 16:9 ratio of the billboard (no, that's not the real ratio of billboards, but it's easier to manage for this challenge). Submit a suitable horizontal image. You don't need to include text, but you are free to do so if you think it will make your submission more impressive.

Processing rules:

No borders or watermarks.

Capture date rules:

No restrictions.

Additional rules:

The hammer must be the sort you find on a construction site, not in a blacksmith shop or fantasy roll-playing game. An electric or pneumatic nail driving hammer is acceptable if easily identified.
Although it's "Hammerin' MAN," there is no requirement for a man to be in the image (and a woman holding a construction hammer is quite acceptable).
No trademarked logos (edit them out if need be)
