Watch me make small but nicely weighted wooden mallets perfect for cabinet/furniture making. These are to join two other larger mallets I made a while back. Each mallet is filled internally with metal shot and resin to increase mass not size The handles are Turned on my Record Power Coronet Herald Wood Lathe. I love woodturning and these handles are a classic example why i would never want to be without my lathe.
The American Purple Heart Mallet handle is turned from a piece of Apple wood which had some very beautiful and interesting grain colours and patterns.
The Chacate Preto mallet handle is turned Zebrano
Both mallets have a Maple centre and both heads are secured to their handle with the use of a through wedged mortice and tenon.
On one end of each mallet I cut a recess and lined it with leather / hide to protect wood when assembling joints like dovetails
The mallets compliment my #veritas tools as they are not too brutal.
Please feel free to comment or to ask me questions as I'm happy to reply.
Hope you enjoy.

Dude, these are more than tools, these are works of art!
The purple wood is beautiful!
Thank you. I promise I use them.
Oh those are beautiful! Great video!!!! 😎
Fantastic stuff indeed. 👍
Love it! A master showing the world his craft! Can't wait for the next one... A giant mallet to go with the others?!
Amazing detailed process and explanation. Clearly a great professional.
this is SO cool, always wondered how you make this stuff
Gorgeous mallet.
Thank you. They've had a fair bit of use now and haven't fallen apart yet so i'm taking that as a positive🤣
_beautiful_
Thankyou
beautiful work ❤
Thanks for your view and comment. much appreciated
Great job they look excellent
Thank you
Great video! Lots of good tips to it but I have the same problem I cut them on the power tools and wish I would have cut them by hand
These are absolute things of beauty. It’s a shame these aren’t for sale but carry on enjoying your hobby
Watched this video so many times now. Brilliant in every way - and those mallets are just beautiful! Please can I ask where you get the leather from that you used for the head of the mallets - and also where you got the leather from for the lanyards?
Thanks for the continued support. This was my first video. The leather was from Workshop Heaven and the cord I can't remember but I think it can be found on amazon.
Goldilocks and the 3 mallets, they're gorgeous man, and i must ask, how is the color of the purpleheart holding up? And when you made these did you have to bring back any of the color in the purpleheart?
Thank you - The Purple Heart is doing well. Through my experience with it, after working it, it turns pink. I generally leave it at this point for a few weeks to regain the colour ( air and UV i think ). I have also heard that heat helps it get the colour back but haven't tried as yet so don't take my word for it. Thanks for watching
How do you not have more subscribers? Excellent video i just subbed
Thank you for your sub and comment. my channel is picking up slowly but can be a little sole destroying sometimes, so kind comments like yours are much appreciated. Hope you have a great week.
@@WoodScrape I can see you blowing up soon bro. Some of the best content I've seen on here. So many TH-camrs have started doing less building and tips and more tool reviews and that's just not what I'm here for. Keep doing what you're doing bro
Love these little mallets, do you have plans available or the dimensions?
Beautiful!!
Hi.. Sorry, missed this one. I do have plans i can email to you. depends whether you want to put your email on here. Ill delete as soon as I've done it
Should have left the weight to move... that way you would also have a dead blow effect.
ill give that a go next time
Where can I purchase these?
Hi, I'm sorry but this is my hobby. I don't earn from it. If it changers in the future, ill reply to you here
Can I purchase one of your malets
I’m afraid this is just my hobby but thank you for asking. It’s very flattering
@@WoodScrape hobby nothing, those are awesome!
@@animaloverload7465 thank you
