Worlds Smallest Ball Peen?

I thought my brass hammer was the smallest, Darn
11 years old when I did this, made a lathe with a small motor and some wood down in the basement.
Used some off mom's sewing needles that I ground down for tool bits, and she was very very upset, I didnt tell her I was going to grind the tips off.
She kept my allowance for 2 months, boy that hurt, $.25 cents x 8 weeks =$2.00.
I did learn my lesson.

Thanks, I could never do that again in my life, to blind, to shaky,.
'67 wouldn't be special to you other than for pennies??

Here's mine. You might have to zoom in to see it. I made the ball peen head out of the shaft of a needle, and used a splinter of hickory I plucked out of my hand for the handle. Hold on, I dropped it...
