Iron Hammer
An iron hammer allows for more sophisticated building.
Notes
The **Iron Hammer** is a tier-2 tool used for refined construction work, notably assembling advanced building materials like Mortared Stone. As a mid-game upgrade from the stone hammer, it offers significantly higher durability (1,500 uses) but consumes 8 calories per swing and deals minimal damage to animals. Because it is an Ingredient in the Scrap Tool recipe, consider setting a fair store price for used or damaged hammers to keep your town's scrap flow efficient, rather than simply discarding them.
