Mallet making session

Posted on
  • does anyone fancy meeting up to make some mallets? ive never made one and dont have the facilities at home plus it'd be good to have some help for the first one. i suggest either meeting up at someones house or alternatively, we can use the workshop at my work. we've got drills, hole saws, vices etc there, so it's pretty ideal.

    let me know your thoughts.

  • your work sounds like the bizzle

  • it is..!

  • i dont need a mallet right now but am happy to come along and lend a hand

  • a couple of templates i made a while back for making mallets if they're any use, print (make sure you don't print "fit to page") cut out, stick on to pipe and use as a guide to help get the shaft & bolt holes in the right place, the drillings are up to you, alter as necessary...
