Making A Mallet
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- Making another homemade tool, a dead blow wooden mallet. The brass part is a standard 3/4 "T" fitting and it's partially filled with lead.
Handle is turned on the lathe from an old piece of plum wood that was full of cracks, knots and bugs. Not exactly the best material for a hammer handle, but it will be used for gentle tapping not really hammering things, so it should last a while.
The tips are made of hard wood and I'll probably epoxy some leather on one of them. I also plan to make some in different shapes, some wider, some pointed and some rounded and also one from aluminium and one from plastic.
=====================
I first saw this kind of mallet on Chris Pine's channel: / @thechrispineworkshop

Absolutely beautiful! I was looking for a mallet design for my own shop. This is it!
Thank you Stephen!
With all these projects, I went an got me a lathe, first to learn to use it and then to try to make the ice picker and this one. Love your work.
Best regards from Panama City, Panama.
Thank you Jose!
Hey thanks for the mention that you saw it on my channel! I love ti when folks make something after I did ! It really is a fun project! Yours looks way more classy than mine! Beautiful!
Chris
Thank you Chris! Well, yours looks a lot sturdier than mine, a proper mallet, mine is just for tapping delicate things, like the drawbar on my mini lathe, so I was free to make it more fancy.
that thread cutting idea was brilliant
Awesome! Makes me want a lathe more than I already did.
WOW! you are a delight to watch! I search and search for Japanese craft channels because they are great technicians. Great to come across you. I am subscribed!!
The comedic timing of the jump cut and speed up of the sawing at 0:38 got me for some reason.
Nice job. I'm not crazy about the design of the handle, but your lathe skills are impeccable and you did an excellent job here.
Very nice looking mallet. I like the idea of the lead weight added.
Thanks, it helps with the dead blow effect.
This is awesome. I just watched you use this in the last video and was really intrigued by the wooden ends. Pretty neat man!
Looks perfect for a wooden handplane adjuste!
Simple, cheap and beautiful. Very jealous.
Thank you!
you made thread cutting die from a coupling!!! YOU'RE A GENIOUS and I love your work
Ok so I liked this project so much I had make one for my self. It turned out pretty good if I do say so my self. So now I have three. Thanks for the video and inspiration.
5:09 why was this so satisfying
Nice! I like the handle; it looks better than te ones I've made. Instead of the cut lead pieces, buy some BBs and use them to fill the coupling. Also, glue on a heavy piece of leather to the end caps to protect the wood and whatever you want to pound.
Thanks! I was planning to add leather on one end. As for the BBs, hard to get them here. Fishing weights might be an option, but I'd rather use free stuff when I can :)
Now that was very cool. Great looking mallet, thanks for the video
Very Sweet! ☺,
"The Ultimallet!"
a fully customisable Dead blow mallet!
Brilliant! (I only ever used cheap airgun pellets for the weights in my mallet attempts,, 500 pellets, at just over 1 gram a piece is over half a kilo, for about 3 quid, better impact characteristics too, the smaller bits, equals faster smoother transter of the weight/ power.
And with your design you can can turn almost any head to fit it, nylon, ally, brass, even leather (bonded to a base thread obviously) it's a brilliant design!
So I'm nicking it! 😊
(for purely personal use btw, and if anyond asks. I'll link them straight to you)
I hope the cheap airgun ammo idea goes some way to make up for it! 😊
myster. E Jones is
Gotta make one of them!Too cool. Big thumbs up.Gabby
Thank you Gabby!
Really love it. Magnificent idea.
Very nice. I bought a tee, probably 5 years ago, to do the same thing after I saw it in a magazine (Shopnotes?) and have never gotten around to doing it. Glad you did, lol.
This is pure genius! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks, I was inspired by Chris Pine, who also saw it somewhere on pinterest I believe, and so on.
That is not a mallet. It is a piece of art!
Thank you!
Great build!
Excellent work!
Nice job. This is the first time that I've seen a screwdriver skew....lol
fantastic build!
Like that design!
Another awesome tool making video.
Thanks for sharing.
Excellent job
Gorgeous!
Great job good use of pipe and the threading
Thank you Chris! Not my original idea, I saw it on Chris Pine's channel, who saw it on Pinterest, pinned from some magazine and so on.. :)
That is a piece of art...
that hammer is beautiful!
bloody marvelous nice bit of kit
beautiful piece!!! it was a good turn.
Good stuff, I like the threading idea.
Wow man, that came out really awesome! Great work!
Amazing creativity buddy. Hats off
Smart use of material and bice product.
Nice handle.
Nice job mate
Very nice.
you've got some mad skills. I wish I had a little lathe like that
Thank you! They are available worldwide and cost around $150. They are the size of a keyboard and quiet so you can use them inside, as long as you don't mind the wood chips they make.
+The Small Workshop No kidding $150. where the hell do I go to order one.
It's a Proxxon DB 250, it depends on where you live. Google it.
Well done man looks really nice!
Thank you!
Lovely job
Thank you!
Outstanding
great job
Thank you!
Wow, this is brilliant!
Thank you!
Brilliant idea.
Beautiful work! Thanks for sharing.
So very cool!!
Thank you!
I liked this video a lot. Its been the third video of yours I've watched and also the third time i've learned something new from your videos. You have a new subscriber. Cheers Alex
Thank you very much Alex!
This man is a genius
Padrisimo trabajo amigos.... Saludos desde CDMX. México
VERY COOL
Very Good.
Thanks!
Well done!
Thanks!
Very cool... Well done!
Very cool, one could also use shotgun shell shot for weight...how one acquires the shot is up to the builder. once again cool video.
Very nice! Thanks for sharing.
Nice Job!Thanks for sharing.
Nice job !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Digger
Thank you!
Beautiful - so cool!
awesome. You threaded that wood!
very cool
+Daan.Z.bloedjes Thanks!
Now that's cool 👌
Great idea and better video
Awesome! I'll try to make one.
Thanks!
It's Awesome! And i just want to know would the handle loose after a long time hitting? I think it would be better to fill the "T" fitting with epoxy.
Thanks! I thought the same way, but it didn't came loose. I like to keep it unglued, because I made a shorter handle too, that turns it into a palm mallet, and I can change them when I need. Also the T fitting needs to be part empty so the lead can bounce inside, else you loose the dead blow effect and end up with a regular mallet.
very nice indeed....
nice job
I like it,....très beau maillet
Thank you!
What a beauty!!
Great idea, thanks a lot!
that was fascinating to watch...
Seriously beautiful
Well done!! nice project in the future!!
Frank
Marvelous idea! Definitely gonna try this out :D
great job man now i have to try to make one or two lol
Thank you!
Loved your sushi board
beautiful
That is so Cool. Thank you for the video.
The pipe fitting was a genius move. I would suggest making some leather heads since this is a light duty hammer.
Excelente trabajo, una gran idea usar esos materiales, le da una imagen muy buena.
Thank you!
Damn. Great job
Very nice, looks great! Im doing a mallet right know, will make a video as well
ORDER, ORDER!
I like that!! That's cool
With real tools, you would be unstoppable. V nice.
Awesome!
Thanks!
0:46 made me laugh a bit too hard XD
nice!!
Thank you!
Very good
great
Thanks!
Perfect!
for lead I assume you can also use air rifle pellets or BBs if you don't have a lead pipe to scrap.
Yea, pretty much any lead pieces would work, round ones even better, since they move more freely, allowing a better dead blow effect.
+The Small Workshop Wheel weights from car tires are another great source of lead. I'm sure most tire shops would give you a handful if asked.
Creative! Cong. Mr
