I'll stick with software development; sitting around drinking coffee and not having to track down who misplaced my wrench.

And it's really difficult to skin your knuckles on a sharp* bit of code!
* Or even a C# bit of code.

Depends on how hard you bang your keyboard.
Give me coffee to change the things I can and wine for those I can not!

True story: Back when I was in college I worked at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base on a VAX-11/780, which used DEC VT100 terminals.
I broke a VT100 keyboard by banging on it too hard.

I've hit mine pretty hard, in the past but never broke one.

I've broken my knuckles once, but not the keyboard...
That said that was a bit more force than just banging the keyboard, it was more of a sustained beating I was giving the thing, a bit like when the good guy finally catches the bad guy and has him on the floor explaining the error of his ways 
Yea, I really lost my temper that day!!!

I've been close to that point but got up and walked away.
Although I've destroyed 2 cell phones in a fit of rage. The Ex knew just what buttons to push!

ha ha yes....
I used to have a one of those windows mobile 6 smartphones, with the slide out keyboards, and it was the perfect size and shape for my wife to throw!
She's not got a very good throwing arm, but that one device she could throw and hit her target bang on every-time.
Every-time I upset her, or we had a tiff, the first thing I used to do was pick my phone up and hide it, or put it in my pocket where she couldn't get a hold of it, damn thing was also solid enough that it hurt like hell when it hit you!

Aye, I've seen those things!!!
Friend of mine used to have a vinyl sign cutting business, he had an A3 cutting/plotter thing that you fed vinyl into the back of by the roll and it whisked around at high speed cutting out complex shapes, damn thing was terrifying.

So how do you deal with the person who broke the build a day before the planned release?
