C.S. Osborne No. 33 Bronze-Head Magnetic Tack Hammer
When to choose it
The No. 33 has two steel-tipped faces on a bronze head. Use the ¼-inch magnetic end to position a compatible steel tack and the wider 7/16-inch face to drive it. This gives you two contact sizes for the same attachment, which matters when the tack sits beside the edge of a folded cover.
Osborne lists a seven-ounce head and an 11-ounce complete tool. Compare the No. 36 if the visible fastener calls for a softer nylon contact. For a steel face, compare the head dimensions with the space where you will swing the hammer.
