Soft Hammer (GregTech 5)

The Soft Hammer is a uniquely very useful tool in GregTech. Unlike most other tools, it is not used in many crafting recipes, but right-clicking on any machine with a Soft Hammer will toggle that machine's activity. It will manually turn it Off or On. If the machine is actively processing items when it is hit, it will attempt to finish its process and then stop. This is particularly useful if the machine has run out of energy, as it allows you to tell the machine to stop trying to work until you have determined enough energy to be available again. The Soft Hammer is also required to activate all Multiblock Machines, and the control block GUIs even tells you this.

The Soft Hammer is also used in the Maintenance Hatch. It fixes the "Something is stuck" problem.

Soft Hammers are most commonly crafted out of Wood, Rubber, and Plastic.
