Designer Invents Auto-Hammer That Makes DIY Projects a Whole Lot Easier
By Emma Taggart on August 22, 2018
If you’ve ever struggled with a DIY project, chances are you blamed your frustrations on the tools you were using. A standard hammer and nail might seem simple, but the dangers of hammering your thumb might just scare you away from home-improvement projects altogether. However, Ohio-based product designer Michael David Young has come up with a solution—an easy-to-use hammer with an integrated nail dispenser.

완전 편리한 자동 망치 DIY 작업 시에 어려움을 겪은 적이 있다면, 사용 중인 툴에 대한 불만 때문일 수 있다. 일반적인 망치와 못은 단순해 보일 수 있지만, 엄지손가락으로 망치를 치는 것은 아예 집짓는 것을 포기하게 할지 모른다.
그러나 오하이오에 본사를 둔 제품 디자이너인 마이클 데이비드 영은 통합형 네일 디스펜서가 장착된 사용하기 쉬운 자동망치를 고안했다. Auto-hammer라 불리우는 이 도구는 간단한 동작으로 못을 제자리에 고정시킨 다음 못을 망치로 두드려 공정을 간소화하며 사용자가 부상을 입지 않도록 한다. 영의 자동망치 디자인 과정은 스케치와 함께 최종 시제품에 도달하기 전까지 수많은 반복을 테스트했다. 상세는 아래 동영상 참조 황기철 콘페이퍼 에디터 큐레이터 Ki Cheol Hwang, conpaper editor, curator |
The auto-hammer requires no electricity and features a “nail strip,” loaded into the device. With a simple tap, it produces a nail and sets it into place. Each nail is then ready to hammer into the surface, streamlining the process and allowing the user to avoid injury. Young’s design process started with hand-drawn sketches and tested countless iterations before settling on the final version.
“This is my mad scientist project for the past 6 years,” says Young. “I finally got it to work after many many prototypes, got my provisional patent and shipped it around to the big tool companies.” The designer claims that two major brands have already shown interest in his invention, but unfortunately the deals fell through. However, that didn’t kill his positivity—Young excitedly toasts to the future, saying “Here's to many more inventions and ideas for us all!”
