Wow impressive and great video. It really looks better than those Tandy Leather stuff. Where did you get your parts from and how much does it weigh? Great video

Thank you! The weight is exactly 350 grams (is a small one) the parts... well I already had the rod, leather and steel. Only had to buy the UHMW plastic in a local warehouse, they sell various metals, plastics and construction stuff (It's called randrade).

Gorgeous! Kind of makes you wonder how those kids over in China can make these so cheaply doesn't it? All joking aside, you have an interesting selection of tools.. Why would you choose to use a tiny little drill press over your big one? How hard was it to get that acorn nut on the bottom with those buggered threads? Also, you are putting a lot of sideways force on your big drill press when you were sanding that. If that press has a tapered spindle, you may be really surprise one day when the chuck falls right out of it while it's running.

What a great video. Turning semi-ugly pieces into a beautiful, functional tool. Handle shape has always fascinated me. How does one determine the correct shape of any tool's handle. I see that your thumb rests on the flaring at the top of the maul. Does it work? Thanks again.

Thank you! I'm glad that people enjoy the videos. As for the handle well...I searched for the top brands of mauls in order to get a general shape and dimensions, then I opted for a size smaller than large (because I have medium to small hands) and determined the final shape by "feeling it" in the hand. I have to say it feels very confortable and have two grabbing positions, the one with the thumb at the top when I do precision "taps" and another grabbing by the end of the handle when you need more power. Both positions feel very natural in hand.

how can a belt grinder eat steel so fast ?? I was amazed when you made the square piece round
@aikabacrafttools9129
5 жыл бұрын
I think a high speed on the belt is a mayor factor when you want to eat steel quickly, mine goes about 30 m/s and that really helps.

Your handle looks great and turned perfectly, but the weight of the maul is not enough. I have similar Al- Stohlman maul, which is expensive to buy from the shop. I had it before my lathe. Later bought another one made in China with a hardwood handle. Looks great, but not enough wait to work with thick leather, but that one is weighted maul. You should put inside the plastic some heavy Iron or brass bar for weight. I bought the Chinese one because making a new one the same cost and more work.

Good work overall...metal washers are too big for the shown plastic striking surface on this given maul head. The metal disc should have either been undersized by 10 mm to 15 mm or the plastic maul head made larger...
