MADMAX22 Report post Posted June 8, 2010 Gotta show this set off as I think Ed deserves it for making something this nice. A little while back I decided I wanted to try that brown head mauls that Ed started making. They work wonderfully, the best maul or mallet I have tried and more then likely the last one I will need. Well at the time I did not get a stand to go with them but they looked to good to be sitting on a bench without a proper home so I had Ed make up a stand for them. All this design and everything is Eds artistic talent at play. The only thing I said I wanted was cocobolo wood and the weights for the mauls (14oz and 20oz). The rest was Eds imagination. Anyways here they are enjoy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Colter Report post Posted June 8, 2010 Wow, Those are Beautiful, the Stand too! I Know my 17 oz. has taken my old mallets off the bench For Good, Ed Does Amazing Work! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MADMAX22 Report post Posted June 8, 2010 I know what ya mean Colter, money well spent in my book. I wanted to add that yes the stand does hold the mauls at an angle. I also wanted to add a couple of Ed's pics as his are better then mine, he just didnt have the mauls and stands together at the same time to take pics of the whole setup together.

RustyMelton Report post Posted June 8, 2010 What a nice set! I saw some pictures of them on here a while back and decided to order one myself, and i just love it. Being a pool cue guy, the great choice of woods that he has to offer was what drew me in. I'd only used a mallet until I got it and now I'm really glad I ordered one because for me the maul seems easier to use than the mallet. Thanks for showing your set.

BearMan Report post Posted June 8, 2010 Hi Everybody, Thanks for all the wonderful compliments! MadMax gave me permission to make them pretty much anyway I wanted. A lot of the time, my design ideas happen when I should be sleeping. Sometimes, there is just no way to make them work,,, but sometimes, they come out pretty nice. My wood supplier, seems to be able to get me just what I'm looking for also. Thanks again for looking,, Ed the"BearMan" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
