    What kind of mallet for cutting dovetails do you use?

    I'm looking to make a mallet to use when cutting dovetails or mortises but am unsure which type works better. Maybe it is more of a personal preference but I thought I'd ask. I do have a lathe so turning a maple one was my initial thought. The square head dead-blow type was another one I was...

    Simple Shop Mallet with an Inlay

    Plans for this mallet submitted by Serge Duclos (not including the inlay), were in the #205 - Feb/Mar issue of Woodsmith magazine. This one was made from some scrap curly maple and sapele - I added the Federal Period Fan. I think it's an easy project and a nice application for the fan inlay...

    GUAYACÁN and BOCOTE mini-mallet

    The GUAYACÁN head is the piece left over after making the ice cream scoop. It started out as a 2X2" stub from the 12" stick. The Bocote was a 1X1X12" ($2.49 at Woodcraft). This could be a gavel, or a high end kitchen mallet for tenderizing a pork chop, or breaking up a bag of ice. The...

    Fred Flintstone Mallet

    This summer, after weeks of spending every free minute cutting up these two big oaks that fell in the woods behind my house, I realized that I wasn't using any of the wood for anything useful. So I cut a couple of pieces for a project I had in the back of my mind and set them aside to dry. A...

    My brother is interested in carving and wanted a mallet. This is my first attempt, made from a crepe myrtle tree that was cut down a few hours before putting it on the lathe. This was my first time turning green wood and it was fun! The mallet is already starting to crack in one spot on the...

    My Mallet

    Here it is. Glued it up this weekend. I still need to shape the head around the handle and the handle needs to be shortened. I will probably also give it a bit more shape as well. Lastly, it looks too long. What is the typical length of a handle?

    Joiners Mallet Size Suggestions

    Now that I finally have a set of real mortise chisels, I find the old round head wooden hammer I've had for years is a bit on the light side. I liked the feel of the German/English pattern "Joiners Mallets" we used in Roy's dovetail class but, thinking it was a 'one size fits all' type mallet...

    Krenov style wood plane and adjusting mallet

    For father's day my children got me David Finck's Making and Mastering Wood Planes. I really enjoyed reading this book. Well written and it covers much more than just how to make a plane. David seems like a really nice guy too. In the course of making the plane I emailed him and got a quick...
