hammerers

Those who pound

Hammerers are people who use hammers, whether literally or figuratively.

The term applies to workers who drive nails or shape metal, but extends to anyone who pounds away at something repeatedly or persistently.

A hammerer might be a craftsman at a forge, a carpenter on a job site, or someone who relentlessly pursues a point in argument.

The hammerers in the shop kept up their rhythm all day long.
