I've literally forgotten which hand I hold a hammer in. Last time I assembled some furniture, I just couldn't figure out any difference. I think I remember there used to be some slight preference earlier, but I just can't say one side would be any better at it than the other.

(I do have clear preferences for many other activities, though which activities go left and which right seems pretty arbitrary, and might just be what I got used to instead of actual dominance. Like, I hold my phone on the right hand because it's in the right pocket, but is that a preference, or just avoiding putting the phone in the same pocket as keys/flashlight/etc?)
