BearMan Posted January 5, 2010 Report Posted January 5, 2010 Hi Everybody, I hope Everybody had a Wonderful Christmas! Here are some of the Mauls I made before Christmas. Some of these, I knew were going to be Christmas presents, so I held off posting pictures of them. The types of woods that the people wanted, were all beautiful,,,pictures just don't seem to do them justice. I'm sure everybody that recieved one could say more. I guess I'm kind of like the Shoemakers Son,,,my personal mauls are rather boring,,, maybe it's time to make something like some of these for myself,,, hehehe Take Care,,, & Thanks Again!

Members jbird Posted January 5, 2010 Members Report Posted January 5, 2010 Another great batch of bearman mauls. Josh Quote
Members BradB Posted January 5, 2010 Members Report Posted January 5, 2010 Thanks for making mine Ed, they are awesome and pictures don't do them justice!! Your turn around time as well as the whole ordering experience was top notch, thank you! Quote
Members Sasquatch Posted January 5, 2010 Members Report Posted January 5, 2010 Hey Ed, great work, I was wondering do you do mallets as well or just the mauls and what kind of weight are these bad boys? thanks, Mike. Quote
Members Kevinjohnson Posted January 6, 2010 Members Report Posted January 6, 2010 Thank you Ed for making my XMas maul. The workmanship is outstanding! Eventhough I am used to using Bob Beard's mauls, I appreciate the different feel that these have (more rebound). If you ever get a chance to make a heavier version, write me down. Quote
Members GrampaJoel Posted January 8, 2010 Members Report Posted January 8, 2010 Hey that last one on the right looks like the one you made for me. I love mine. I use it almost every day. Makes a good walnut cracker...... not really. Are you going to make any heavier? I'm looking for something like 24oz or so. Quote
BearMan Posted January 8, 2010 Author Report Posted January 8, 2010 Hi Joel, The Rosewood one pictured above, is a 22oz Maul. I may be able to stretch it to 24oz,,, maybe. Once the weight gets to 20oz, I go from a 1/2" Stainless center shaft, to a 5/8" shaft. I also make the striking head about 1/4" bigger around. With the extra weight, I don't feel that a 1/2" shaft would be strng enough. But then again I tend to make things stronger than they actually need to be. Thanks for your interest.
