Electrician's chisels may be used by electricians in order to clear out spaces from walls when installing pattress boxes.

Cold chisel comes from its use by blacksmiths to cut metal while it was cold as compared to other tools they used to cut hot metal. Because cold chisels are used to form metal, they have a less-acute angle to the sharp portion of the blade than a woodworking chisel. I don't think it can be use to curve stones

A commonly-used hammer is a club (also called a lump) hammer, although other hammers such as a ball pein hammer may be used. A ball pein hammer is a hammer with one flat end and one rounded end. It is frequently used with metal objects, such as cold chisels. Stone masons may sometimes use a wooden carver's (or carving) mallet whilst working stone, as there is less power in a mallet strike. Heads with a barrel-like shape remove the need to hit the chisel with a specific face.

    Wear safety glasses, or goggles, or a face shield (with safety glasses or goggles).
    Use the right size of chisel for the job.
    Choose smooth, rectangular handles that have no sharp edges and are attached firmly to the chisel.

Chisel-like tools have been dated to the paleolithic era ,which stretches across a vast expanse vof evolutionary time ,from before the first Homo sapiens to roughly 10,000 B.C.E.During this time humans were making and refining stone tools ,which became gradually more specialized over time.Other materials were also used,and bone chisels from around 30,000 B.C.E have been uncovered in southern France ,near the village of Aurignac.Although very difficult to date exactly,it is thought that by about 7500 B.C.E,what we would recognise today as a chisel was in fairly common use.

By the time of the Bronze age ,chisels had become quite varied and included gouges-chisels with curved blades-and tanged chisels ,where the blade is connected to the handle by a collar.The greek architect Manolis Korres believes the chisels used by the ancient Greeks needed specialized tools to craft their iconic temple in acropolis.

During the medival period ,carpenters employed tools known as ""Former"" chisels .these had a broad,flared blade,which was used to carve rough wood,there were also other chisels for detailed and speciality work.

you should use a hammer with double the surface area of the head of the chisel you wish to hit. A commonly-used hammer is a club (also called a lump) hammer, although other hammers such as a ball pein hammer may be used.
