Nice mallet. Thank you for sharing.

I have a persuader too, it aint that pretty though.

Like the mallet a lot. Love the Scarface reference. Nice stuff Rob.

Sweeet!

Hi Rob;

Great job and your right, the racing stripes do look good.

They probably act to allow the mallet to swing faster due to less wind resistance! LOL

That looks like a very authoritative mallet. Excellent job.

And then there is the side blessing that this isn’t a woodburned portrait of Pacino holding an assault weapon and wearing a bad 1980’s suitcoat. I thank you for that as well.

Looks very nice how did you get the head and handle to go together?

Hi sIKE, The mallet is 5 pieces glued together in 3 layers. The handle extends thru the head to the top; then pieces as wide as the handle were glued to make what looked like a very thin mallet. Then I planed it level and smooth and then glued on the sides of the mallet to make it thicker. Then of course I routed the racing stripes for wind resistance ;)

Thanks for the comments everyone.

Douglas, thanks for the woodburning idea!

OMG, No!
