David A Geister of Prescott, Wisconsin in the early 60's. He was working at 3M at the time and used discarded rubber from the trash. He would insert a hammer handle into a large paper cup and pour the heated stock into the cup. He sold several of the "Original Tuffy Hammer" to sveral people in the area. He was unfortunately let go from Minnesota mining after he approached them with his invention. If you talk to the older generation around Prescott Wisconsin, you might be able to see one of the originals. David died without any residuals from his invention.
