Members DieselTech Posted January 19, 2024 Members Report Posted January 19, 2024 I have & use 3 poly round mauls, 12oz for beveling, 16oz for most basketweave & border stamps, then I got a 24oz for my makers stamp & large geometric stamps. Wish I could find a 12oz leather stacked handle poly maul. Preferably a taper head. 28 minutes ago, Frodo said: I use 2 deadfalls one is a 20 oz ball peen with a 6” handle the other is used straight up and down it is a Dpin off of a bulldozer or hid bucket 7” long the face is 1 3/4”. Frodo is that handle in your ball peen, made out of deer antler? Thanks. Quote

Members MarshalWill Posted January 20, 2024 Members Report Posted January 20, 2024 (edited) I like mallet heads for stamping. Never got used to a round maul. The weights I like are mostly an 4 oz one I made from UHMW and a 10 oz one I bought for larger stamps. For very large stamps like a maker's stamp, I use my drill press to make an impression or, on occasion, a 28 oz Barry King mallet. For BW, like you were asking, I use the 10 oz one. In the photo: the 28 oz BK mallet, the 10 oz mallet and the 4 oz one. Edited January 20, 2024 by MarshalWill error Quote
gtwister09 Posted March 25 Report Posted March 25 Here is a link to an old thread from 2010 concerning weights. Regards, Ben Quote
