How to build a wooden mallet

[@FixitFingers]

Mate when you batch stuff out you REALLY make it special. Masterclass as usual. I burnt the dinner as I was cooking while watching this and got too absorbed in micro-thin plane shavings and forgot what I was doing.

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Burning dinner is a common occurrence around here. I start cooking, and then I go to Maccas for dinner because I forgot the oven was cooking something! :D

G'day from SA, bought one of these mallets, very happy with it, top quality , look and feel.

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Thanks very much mate. I use two of those mallets (two rejects with minor timber defects). They're great. I like the way they give a solid definite blow on the end of my chisels. Very controllable. Though my opinion is heavily biased ;D

[@kevinsorensen367]

Hello from the United States! I like your style. I can't wait to see more videos from you

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Thanks Kevin. More vids coming pretty soon 👍

[@kymmarshall1116]

Love them mate. I bought a wooden mallet that was made by a local fella made of jarrah and another hardwood that I’m not sure of but it is beautifully made and he was asking for $30 for his mallets. After inspecting the mallets I said to him that you’re too cheap and gave him a bit more. Absolutely chuffed with the mallet and it takes pride of place in my tool shed. The shop bought ones didn’t even come close .

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

It's difficult to price items accurately, as the fair price for the maker often seems like it is expensive to for the buyer. I know I can't afford to purchase the things that I make, but I also can't afford to get a mechanic to service my car so I service it myself and hope nothing goes BANG! :D

[@casperscuts2627]

Great job, I just love your sliding table saw. I can only wish!

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Thanks mate. I don't know what I'd do without my saw.

[@onehandedmaker]

A joy to watch your videos. Your workshop makes a great backdrop in the videos as well. Always inspiring and I admire your imagination to keep coming up with great ideas. Well done. One Handed Maker - Australia

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Thanks mate.

[@PeterBilling-gm1ox]

Bloody ripper job mate! I couldn't bring myself to put a ding in one of those beauties by whacking anything with one though! Definitely top shelf stuff.

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Thanks. I've never worried when my tools get dinged up in the pursuit of making nice pieces.

[@charliepetricone8974]

VERY nice workmanship!!

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Thanks Charlie. I was happy with them.

[@jason-tk5rs]

This was incredible! Thanks for sharing

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Thanks!

[@dduncan221]

Nice shop and tools enjoyed the video a lot. Thanks for sharing.

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Thanks mate

[@bjaminf113]

Great job! Enjoyed every bit!

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Thanks!

[@gaetanino54]

wonderful job, my friend! I liked it so much

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Thank you very much

[@MarcusRefusius]

Hello from Sequoia National Park USA. Oh the Irony that it never occurred to you to create a Wooden Dead Blow Hammer. Enjoyable Video though! Cheers.

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

I preferto use my plastic deadblow hammer because I often use it during glue ups. It's easier to clean the glue off.

[@MarcusRefusius]

@@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk Fair Dincum then. You do employ a LOT of glue.

[@WOOD_KITCHEN]

Good friend, very good, your wooden hammers, do you have for sale those hammers that I need 1 for my carpentry workshop, I hope to hear from your prompt response, thank you

[@peternewman9713]

It seems that the wedges are VERY effective!

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Lol, no doubt. I was hesitant about dry fitting them. I have no regrets even if it literally took me 20 minutes to get them out 🤣🤣🤣

[@doraoppong9946]

Very well done really appreciate it

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Thanks Dora

[@To-Lo77]

Just watched the video on your other channel. They look GREAT!!!

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Thanks Tony. I figured it costs me nothing to upload this full "long winded" video here. This is basically a first edit where I have removed 'some' of the boring stuff like walking to and from the camera. It'll be here for those that are interested, or trying to make what I build. I hope to do this for all of my builds from now on.

[@ungratefulbastard8166]

What kind of table saw are u using ! If you don’t mind me ask you ? I love the sawdust vacuum intake . Looks expensive but beautiful .

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

It's a Chinese built sliding panel saw. Not cheap in comparison to the price of a high end table saw, but it's actually pretty cheap compared to high end panel saws :D

[@sandytooks]

Thanks!

[@billofalltrades1468]

Brilliant video! Very educational, I really enjoyed it and learned a lot . Thank you for sharing your talent.

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Glad you enjoyed it! 👍

[@chippychippy8291]

Very well done, really appreciate the explanation. Keep safe!

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Thanks mate

[@mikeyd717]

Is that a 12" tablesaw? It looks larger than a ten for some reason

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

It's a panel saw. Very similar to a table saw, but it is primarily designed for cutting sheetgoods like ply or MDF. It can rip 2500mm long, and uses a 12" blade.

[@TakamiWoodshop]

Reckon I'll give it go!

[@TakamiWoodshop]

thanks mate! got plans just now off your web shop 👍

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

@@TakamiWoodshop Make sure you send me a pic, of the mallet, when you are done. 👍

[@TakamiWoodshop]

@@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk will do 👍

[@alpaca6920]

Nice mallets. Not so keen on gloves with a bandsaw.

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Thanks mate. I don't mind using gloves with a bandsaw. Just need to be aware of and accept the risks associated with gloves.

[@bloushark]

The round is nicer

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

Thanks. The round one certainly was more popular.

[@tanmaykhandekar4801]

Make more videos

[@kuffyswoodworktipsandtalk]

I have a few videos coming soon about building a workbench.
