In the 1800s, a lathing hammer was primarily used in the construction of wooden structures, particularly for fastening lath to wooden frames before plastering. The hammer typically featured a flat striking surface on one side for driving nails and a pointed end or claw on the other for removing nails or prying wood. Craftsmen relied on this tool for its efficiency in preparing walls for plaster, contributing to the overall strength and finish of buildings. Its design allowed for precision work in the intricate carpentry of the time.
