In another trade thread, @Echoashtoreth (Sarah) asked if I'd be up for making and trading a joiners mallet, so I'm starting this thread to stay within the rules of the forum. Will post more after we hash out the details.

Sarah, we won't be able to communicate via PM until you have a few more posts.

Thanks,

Should be no problem to make it out of Texas Ebony. As for dimensions, I typically start with 4/4 stock and I can get a large mallet and handle out of a piece that is approximately 6" x 18" and a small mallet out of a piece that is approximately 5" x 16". If you want a matching set (small and large mallets), I can do that for you as well. I have various species/colors of veneer to integrate into the head of the mallet (can do a veneer strip in the handle also, if desired). A trade for a knife sounds very enticing!

Thanks,

Hi Jason,

I think just the small will do.... plan to use for leather... a tiny for pins would rock, too! i prefer the more golden chatoyant TX E - not picky on veneer as long as it compliments [no pepto pink pls] i can supply wood if you dont have it.... we can figure out the trade thx
