 * Doh! why didn't I think of that. But now I am left wondering why a hammer and why is it important (relatively) to note this fact... if you have a moment;-) Richard Avery (talk) 07:24, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
 * The terminology of having last rock advantage in curling is called having "hammer", so it makes sense to use a little hammer for the scoreboard. In fact, that's what's used in real life score boards.
