Finding the center of Hex

Got the hammer finished up. The longer one is my second one that I was working on last night. The shorter one I did a few weeks back. It is shorter because I screwed up the threading operation on the handle and had to face off the thread and do it a second time. I had misread the tap that I used on the hole in the head and made threads on the handle to fit the wrong sized hole.:nuts:

Thanks for putting up with my questions, it helps me improve and learn as I go.

the handle and one tip are 6061 aluminum. The second tip is brass and the head is hex 1018 steel. The size of head and tips are based on the size of brass and hex that I had on hand. The only brass I have is 3/4"

just clamp it to the side of your vblock or angle plate and use the fancy height gage to find center.
