Do you work with metal professionally or do you happen to have a lathe handy? Also, how is the texture put on the hammer's handle?
No, not professionally, but have laths that I can sneak onto at school. The hammer was a project for a class, the toilet paper roll holder I traded some time on the lathes for helping the teacher out when he was running a welding lab.

The texture on the handle is called knurling
https://www.technologystudent.com/images2/knurl3.gif
You throw it on the lath in place of your normal cutting tool, and jam it into the workpiece at a 90* angle then the the machine to spin at the right speed, and feed the tool across the piece at the right speed.

this pic shows the tool in better detail. Some of them will have a rotating head so that you can choose between different sets of those rollers for different spacing/angles/what not.

Lathes are fun... until you spend like a week of work days on them... then it gets very very very dull.

Teared apart my NZXT Lexa Blackline...

Sandpapering the sides, removing the mesh from front and back 12cm fan holes, painting the insides with higher quality paint job to shiny black, removing most of  the drive cages to make EATX fit.

Probably going to this to sidepanels: steel brushed with high quality water sandpaper + shiny protective layer (looks like brushed chrome).

e. Oh and removing the ugly plastic shit too.

Actually it is going into the car.  I have a directed HD radio, infinity 4 channel amp, and (yet to be purchased) lilliput 7 in touch screen to install along with the computer.  Just slow on the install.
After installation garmin pc gps.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

Rug and carpet are pretty much synonymous; a rug is a form of carpet.

Nah, over here we say "Carpet" for a fixed carpet, then "Rug" for a moveable one.

Yes, carpet covers your whole floor, rug is movable.

K. I would never get a carpet, then. Too much static electricity.

Nah, I like it like it is. This is just a workshop after all. Might get another rug but that's stretching it.

I don't like laminate. Sure its cheap and visually pleasing but it makes noise when you walk on it, like its 300 years old.

That's what you have a laptop for.

That's why you have your couch in the computer room.
