I made four workshop mallets and tried to build them all a bit differently. I used brass, aluminum, stainless steel, and wood. To make these mallets, I used multiple techniques such as turning on a mini lathe, but also performed similar operations using a drill press, table saw, or router table to make the mallet handles. I attached the workshop mallet heads to the handles three different ways: threaded rod, through handle with a wedge, and mortise and tenon. Ultimately, if you want to make a mallet for your workshop I’m hoping this video gave you some ideas and a solid starting point for your project.

Great tip on the use of the circular saw blade in the table saw like that! Also, you said, 'stupid little lathe.' A great saying I like is, "If it's stupid but works, it's not stupid."
Great video, the excitement over the stainless hammer was hilarious! "I just wanna hit stuff with it!"
As I watched I thought to myself ( never have a clue what this guy is going to do ?? ) love the creativity that goes into all your videos , keep em comin !
"You're welcome" 😂😂😂😂😂 Damn, I laughed too hard at it! 😂😂😂😂😂
Walnut and brass one is my favorite but they all came out really nice.
Those were all nice. I like that you trimmed the first mallet’s brass head.
Your work always impress.👏👏
Neat mallets! I may follow your example someday. I made a great chisel mallet out of Bradford Pear. It’s quite solid.
That mini lathe looks like it was a rock star for this video! 🙂

another great video
I love your approach to things because I am much the same way as you I think. Just love to think and research and then work with things. Metals, tools, woods, projects and everything else. Only thing I haven’t seen you really go into is welding or dyi house crap. I do those too. Lol

Time is the only hold up for welding. I've got everything else so that will happen eventually.
nice work
Those are all nice, Billy. Just don't smash your thumb when you use them. Bill

Advice that came too late!
They turned out awesome. I will be doing a brass head maul pretty soon. Keep it up and stay awesome.
Another great video love how you just do what ever comes to you and you always come up with the most amazing things keep up the amazing work
Great video and projects! Will have to attempt one of these this weekend. Can't ever have enough twackers in the shop, for 'gentle manual persuasion'! Also love how your personality and humor shows in your videos. Keep it up!

These are great projects. I have a bunch more I'd like to try to make.
Beautiful work, Billy! Really well done!!! 😃 There are hexagonal brass bars in the market as well... It should look fantastic too! Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

I originally planned to use one but I was in a time crunch and didn't have time to get it. It'll be added to the list of personal projects.
very nice, how about some with metal banding?
Cool
When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail 😂 Great vid man… don’t sell yourself short you do plenty that mediocre folks like us can’t do!
They're pretty sweet looking, I don't know if I'd be able to use them to hit anything at all 🤔. Now that you've done the four mallets/hammers, you should have a go at making a judge's gavel !!! As always buddy 💯% 👍 🇬🇧.

I thought about it!
I would have used boiled linseed oil on the handles, I have never tried tung oil except as a floor finish.
What about rotor bits and metals? Do you need special bits?

I put the tools and bits in the video description, which might help you out on those questions.
The last mallot I’m pretty sure is just a two part stick. Why not just make a one part stick? Or just use a stick?
The only chisel work I do is opening paint/finish cans. lol
