Welcome to Adi's Little Shedshop, in this video we explore the possibilities of making a door knocker for your Shed or even your House, I'm going to make one for my son's bedroom door (it'll be easier). I found a project like this on Steve Good's website years ago and wanted to give it a go, I'll put the link below.
I did decide to not glue the brackets to the backing, but I thought this is a good thing as it's interchangeable then, if it gets damaged it can be replaced. Also even though I dropped the hammer and did break it, off camera, while sanding, it did give an incite into the properties of CA glue and using it to harden the face of the hammer was a stroke of brilliance (no I don't mind saying that myself). I still haven't thought on a finish for it yet but whatever I use will have to be a hard finish. Links to everything used are below:

www.diy.com/de... Definitely need to make a better selection of wood, this was awful

This is a fun easy project to make and very easily changeable to have a completely different knocker for example, a guitar or as I'm going to make a game controller for my sons door.
