A nice carvers mallet. I like the lamination on the maple handle. Can you post a picture of the other end. Does the handle go all the way through. How thick is the laminated wood?

Beautiful mallet. I would hate to hit the first chisel with it though.

Do you think I can tell my wife that I need a lathe, so I can make a stick to beat my caring tools into submission, so I can make her something :)

It looks like that feels good in the hand, it sure is easy on the eye.

This just bounced back up on the home page. Thought it was such a great project it deserved to be seen again.

That is so cool! You must have laminated the wood before turning? How did you do it? Yes, please let us see the top end.
