I decided to make this wooden mallet for the chisels I restored a couple of weeks ago. It's maple with strips of red oak and walnut. Looks pretty good is suppose. I BELIEVE IN MY GOD, MY COUNTRY AND IN MYSELF.

Auctioneers can have the right to bid on one item......and they want something to close every sale with a rebounding thunk noise

No. I started with a scrap of 3X3 maple, ripped that in half, glued in a piece of 1" red oak. After that dried, I ripped it the other way, glued in a 1" piece of walnut. After that dried, I squared up the ends and turned it. I BELIEVE IN MY GOD, MY COUNTRY AND IN MYSELF.

I rarely use it. It's mostly for home repairs and such. There's a few things in this world I'm horrible at. Welding is high up on that list. I just don't do it enough to be good at it.

Yea, I'm no pro. This is basic turning. Something you would do in Jr. High. If they had a shop program like they did decades ago. I BELIEVE IN MY GOD, MY COUNTRY AND IN MYSELF.

We had a full wood shop and a full metal shop. Ironically, I was never in wood shop. I spent all my time in metal shop and got a job as a tool and die machinist after high school. Now, all of that is gone and if they even have shop, I'm sure they make trinkets. I BELIEVE IN MY GOD, MY COUNTRY AND IN MYSELF.
