Really cool idea wish I would’ve seen this thread earlier
♫ εηdεd ♫ 2018 Mallet Swap
- Thread starter Lou Currier
- Start date
Mikey, I plan to make more than one mallet - I'll swap with you too, if you'd like to get in on it.
Thanks Matty I don’t think I’ll have enough time. Seems the older the boys get the less time I’m getting out on the shop.
Same here, it seems. But, if you find some time and change your mind, the offer still stands.
Holy sheepdip! I hate that I missed this! This year so far has been very chaotic and I have just not been on here nearly as much. Very cool and I'm sure you cats had fun.
Looks like a pair to add two me. They just dropped the green flag Les, Jack Bean Counter up and the powers that be can be easily convinced I'm sure!

Now that I know who I'm paired with I can tailor the mallet to what projects I know he'll be doing 
Now to decide which block of Lignum to use.....

Let me see what I have for wood thicker than 8/4. I have a cool idea for using epoxy on termite eaten Sapodilla but I'm not sure how that would work on a user.
I've found the wood. Now I'm doing a ton of research on making a simple mallet. Seems I'm in Hammer Time.
Calling @Bean_counter, you're up Mikey!

Just don't make it so light and small that Katy can knock me over the head with it.

I'd have to make her a stool as well to get up high enough to hit you in the head....
She may have better luck using the mallet at a lower spot....
My wife isn't that cruel or heartless!
