Can you use this to hammer things on? Or does it have too much bounce to properly hammer on? Thanks

I'd say light hammering, such as driving nails, would be ok if you kept your impact point on the end over the steel supports, but if you are going to pull out the 3 pound sledgehammer, it's probably not going to work out well.

Good for handling small jobs. I wouldn't try hammering on it. It's pressed board for one and two it does bounce.

No, the "hammer" feature cannot be turned off. It is a full-time impact driver. As with any impact driver, it is very loud. Personally, I still use a standard driver most of the time. An impact driver certainly has its place (i.e. driving lag bolts), but IMO a standard driver (or drill/driver) still works best for most jobs.

I would say so, it's pretty sturdy....I have discovered that the grip can slid off the hammer sometimes, but it slides right back on and it a little bit rubbery so it hasn't cracked or anything (the grip is rubbery, not the head of the hammer), my son bangs this thing around all the time on all sorts of surfaces and really, it's held up very well!

Yes you can bounce tracks. I haven't done it myself as I haven't had to, but in reading what others have said, there is no degeneration. The manual explains how to do it. If you don't yet own one, get it, it's it's a little powerhouse and sounds amazing as I have done much recording with original music. The guide is well written and easy to follow, in my opinion.

Its very strong but I think the problem you would have would be the bouncing and such would make it lose its grip, so no I wouldn't trust it for that purpose

I use it for that, with my smaller impact gun and it works fine. Big Bertha, my large impact gun is too much of an air hog for it though! So the answer depends on your impact gun, a newer more effecient air impact gun seems to work fine, but the older large impact gun won't have enough air pressure to work

Pump it up until firm. If adults will be hippity hopping around on it (hey, its been known to happen!), you'll want to make it a little less firm. The gauge of the rubber is quite thick and this bounce-on toy is very sturdy for kids up to 100 lbs in my opinion.

I never did get the down force I wanted. To some extent you can crank it down but ultimately it will bounce along a hard dirt road. Over a softer surface, going very slowly, it is OK. I also have a small York rake with a drop down blade. It is much more effective. It is also much more expensive.

You could but it would take an awfully long time! I bought it to break up some concrete in the basement and I wish I would've bought a larger model. I'd go with the Bosch, Dewalt, or Hilti large jack hammers.

This drill is an Drill/Hammer Drill combo. It is not an Impact Driver. The operating principles are different. You can use this to remove lug nuts etc... but don't expect it to work well.

Yes, you can bounce on this. All our kids (as well as neighbor kids) bounce, jump off and climb back on easily. It has given our kids hours of fun.

Yes. Well, as quiet as an impact hammer can reasonably be. It has a lower decibel rating than the extremley similar 2135TIMAX. It needs to have the hammers greased regularly with 1 pound grease to keep those quiet, they get slightly louder the more it's used and the grease thins out/gets dirty.

I have not had any problems with this. The weight naturally shifts slightly when slammed, but I have not had problems maintaining an even shape. The ball bounces nicely off of the ground and against hard and soft surfaces.

it bounces pretty well but my wife and I use it. I think that it might be a little to stiff for a toddler. If they can reach the bar that might help them be able to push down a little harder. Hope this helps.

I bought it for my son and he absolutely loves it. Doesn't find too much bounce back. Hope this helps.

As others have said, it's sturdy. You might notice it flex a little bit. However, with 20 pounds of weight and the design of this bouncer... that flex is normal and won't impair the functioning of it one bit.

I haven't tried it due to the fact that the metal itself doesn't look like it could stand the rapid pounding of an impact gun. They may crack. I would play it safe and just purchase extensions that are made for an impact tool.
