Although Dr. Anne is not part of the canon, she is the best doctor-supervisor ever created. There is no denying it.

Item #: SCP-019-PT-J

Object Class: "Safe"

Special Containment Procedures: For the time being, SCP-019-PT-J must always be in the possession of Dr. Anne. It is exclusively up to her to store and maintain the object.

Description: SCP-019-PT-J is a hammer of colossal proportions rescued on an expedition in the northern Atlantic Ocean between 1930 and 1946. In its original form, the handle of the hammer measures approximately 300 meters in length, and its head approximately 75 meters in width. The word "BAN" is embossed on both the handle and the head.

In a peculiar way, SCP-019-PT-J can change its size, maintaining the same length-to-width ratio regardless of its size. It was witnessed that the object not only became the exact size of a conventional hammer but also passed for one, being used then to nail nails on the wall of Dr. Anne's office by her absent-minded secretary. The said secretary was briefly dismissed.^[1]

In the tests carried out to unveil the reason and conditions that led SCP-019-PT-J to change in size, the object was subjected to contact by some people in different contexts. In all but one test, SCP-019-PT-J maintained its original size.

The successful experiment consisted of Dr. Anne's direct contact with the hammer handle, causing it to shrink in size instantly and suddenly, reaching the exact measurements of a conventional hammer. Outside the script of the experiment, Dr. Anne handled SCP-019-PT-J normally, assuming it was an object without anomalous properties.

Even after 27 days since the beginning of the tests, the only known way and about our resource capacity, to not only analyze SCP-019-PT-J, but also to contain it, is through contact, either right or even indirect, of the object with Dr. Anne. For this reason, SCP-019-PT-J will be under her care for an indefinite period of time until more relevant and reliable results of experiments on the possible methods of containment of the hammer appear.^[2]

Addendum:
[1]: Incident A

+ File

Incident on ██/█/20██, when Dr. Anne left her office to get soda from the minibar located less than 10 meters away, leaving SCP-019-PT-J on her desk. His new secretary entered the office and handled the object, apparently ignoring its peculiarities. A few seconds later, she was caught in the act by Dr. Anne and had the object immediately removed from her hand.

[2]: Record #1

+ File

The so-called "Incident A" was of little use. Despite the potential to cause a major disaster, through it, the following hypotheses regarding SCP-019-PT-J can be confirmed:
-The hammer remains in its small size even if it is away from Dr. Anne, as long as within a short distance.
-The hammer remains in its small size when handled by others.
Because of this, we consider this close relationship between the object and Dr. Anne to be an indirect contact. This raises several new hypotheses for containment methods for SCP-019-PT.

It is no wonder that we are desperate to discover an effective method of containment. I hope we can get this sledgehammer out of her as soon as possible. It is already the sixth case of head trauma in personnel this month alone. -Dr. Santos
