How to Make a Joiners Mallet, Building A First Woodworking Hand Tool

A joiners Mallet is a great first tool to make. not only is it an extremely useful tool, but it is a great exercise in skills. this simple project can be made in a day with basic tools, and in this case, is made from firewood.

This Mallet design is very old and has been around for a long time. Building one is a great way to start into the world of Hand tool woodworking, and will change the feel of any woodshop. As woodworking Projects go, this is one I suggest often. but if you want a more in-depth video Paul Sellers has almost 2 hours on making one here youtube.com/watch?v=u31Ixu6mSHY
