The inside is tapered, and when placed over the handle and struck straight downward, it applies force only to the hoop without hitting the handle itself. This allows the hoop to be driven down smoothly and securely. With this single tool, you can set chisel hoops of various sizes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUsage Instructions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBefore using your chisel, set the hoop by driving it downward with this tool.
