FWIW: At Red Wing they had us glue soft leather on the ends of our rawhide hammers. I mostly used a delrin hammer. Mostly for brass/dent work. For woodwinds I like a smaller hammer made out of something resembling fiberglass, with a 1/4" or so delrin rod piece with a flattened(ish)/chisled end. I used to adjust flute cups by putting the thin rod end where I wanted to hit, and tapping the rod in turn with the hammer. (I tend to miss with the hammer alone.)
