Crysta Polvinale: Week 3 Hammer

Most hammers are made with a bias towards men so I wanted to create one that would stand out for women. A typical stereotype is that women don't own tools and instead use the next best thing...a heel. I thought this might be the type of hammer a woman would pick out for herself as it embraces the sexier side of hardware.
To achieve the shape of the heel I created curves and then extruded them. I used a little boolean difference and union to connect the shapes and make cut-outs on the handle. For the grip line on the handle, I used the project and pipe workflow.
My color choices are based on the Christian Louboutin "red-bottom" heels. I think the red and black make the hammer less girly and more appealing to a wider range of women.
