Back in the 80's when i were on construction as a 'Decker' (high rise steel floor layin) my favourite tool was the old Red Hilti Gun that we pinned the steel sheets into the beams put up by the steel erectors.

Steel erectors had the most dangerous job on site them days n' we were in 2nd in regards the danger element tho clearin sometimes £5-600 per week (£80 bonus higher the floor etc) week made it fun.

Plater by Trade 7lb Hammers part of the family.

kin 'ell albert, thats a fuckin big hammer. What does a 'plater' do? Is it shipbuilding?
There's platers in shipyards your right mate but its a hell of a launch from Duky,we used to build Lancashire Boilers, petro-chemical columns, heat exchangers etc 4" thick steel takes some moving hence the boilermakers emblem crossed hammers and durex. If yer can't hit then f@@k it.

We still hire these out. Even with newer models like the DX460 over the last 10 years I've been doing this job the DX450 is still the working mans choice.
