Sorry to hear but glad it wasn't worse.
Sounds like it's time to design a holder for the chain hoist. I have 65lb Gilson wheel weights but luckily they have a center hole.

At my previous employer, the two welders were working together tacking a large sheetmetal part together. Adam would tack the part and Jeremy would smack it with a BIG leather end steel hammer.
The head came off the hammer and hit Adam right in the mouth. Knocked two teeth out and broke another one off.
That's the "weapon of choice" right there. Also in the picture is a 6" scale for size reference
