In my experience, these types of mallets used to be made with a tapered handle to fit the tapered head slot. The head would just slip over the grip and up to near the top of the handle where the taper held it fast. No wedges required. Also, the head was a single block of wood and the slot was simply chiselled out, no glue required. The head never ever came off, unless it split apart or the handle broke, but in either event abuse would be to blame,

The most impressive bit is that he NEVER misses the shot on the scrap bin!! Nice work on the mallet too. That thing is never going to come apart.

Love your content! Watched every single one of your videos, some more than once. I have a request. If you could make your videos a little longer showing more of the process in a tutorial way. I’ve learned a lot from watching your videos so far. Another request. Please make a video about your different planes. How do you sharpen your blades? How do you adjust and set up to produce such beautiful thin shavings? It’s completely mesmerizing to watch! Thank you for your content. Awesome work!
-
Love watching you create
-
I really like that you share your knowledge without feeling the need to talk All. The. Time. Great watching experience. Thank you!

Awesome , modern and to the meat of things skills and video , thank you and God Bless you for sharing ! Don’t ever change . Greetings from California “the beautiful “

My axe/maul handle used to loosen regularly. I got so tired of removing the handle & adding fresh wedges. Finally I fixed it PERMANENTLY. I took off the handle for THE LAST TIME and added gorilla glue. That was over 15 years ago & it hasnt loosened a lick after MUCH use. !

The way you work with your tools is like what I would imagine Michelangelo had with his paint brushes handling them with meticulous grace and precision. I want to be like you brother. Thanks for your inpiration.
-
A real craftsman i like your mallet a lot. I do need a new one and I will follow your instructions and hopefully make mine look just like yours many thanks

Gotta love how this guy like mostly using manual tools instead of power-tools, kinda brings back memories when i now started doing wood-working in school, great video mate , cheers.

This man's voice made me hit the like button when he requested it. HE MADE ME. He's got a voice like a well made desk.
-
I really liked this, almost made entirely with hand tools, (just a drill motor). Good job and seems simple.
-
Nice work, I started 45 years ago with mostly hand tools (cost) and now have mostly power tools, I think it’s time to migrate back.
-
Nice work with the panel saws.....my grandfather was the only one that I knew who could really use one .....and he's long dead.
-
It's amazing for watching all of this is made by hand tools only while most of wood workers using electrical or battery operated tools and equipments. So satisfying watching this.
-
Very inspired by all your videos. Beautiful mallet. So glad I live in a time when I can learn from people like you.
-
Really nice to see you using traditional tools and achieving a beautiful result! Thanx for posting x.
-
I think the shaping you did makes it look much more interesting. In my humble opinion: Functionality + Aesthetics = Craftsmanship!
-
Love how sharp your tools sound. Hand tools are much more satisfying to use.

I’m not sure if I’m l’or impressed by the amazing build itself or by the fact that he never misses the scrap bin 😎 Great job, you got me subscribed
