Members Sona Posted June 22, 2014 Members Report Posted June 22, 2014 Nice job done here! I suck at woodwork Well, be sure that I´ve seen a lot of people who just suck a lot more than you do Exspecially with those things: don´t always think about perfection! If it is a tool you make for yourself for use, than there should be just one main criteria: Does it work? If that´s the case everything is all right, as you don´t seem to try making your money with woodworking even more (besides that: that handle looks quite good for me for someone who just do a little woodworking and just from time to time)Did you glue the rod into the handle? And did you glues thos cut out pieces together or did you just used the nut + rod to clamp it together?If you wanna go for a nice look I´d propably do some sanding on the head, but all in all it looks good. And as said before: If it works.... it works Quote

I drilled the hole in the wooden dowel a size smaller than the metal rod I put it through. It is on there TIGHT! I had to hammer it down onto the rod like a crazy person! The disks are not glued either. There is enough pressure from the nuts and washers to hold them together tight. I definitely should sand the head. I think it will look neater that way.

Members Wild Bill46 Posted June 22, 2014 Members Report Posted June 22, 2014 Joe , Your the type of guy who just keeps delivering. Thanx for this tutorial of sorts, I have been thinking of getting a bit of a smaller maul for myself, I use a #2 lbs maul now ! So now I can add to those thoughts, to include making one from your design thoughts. Again, thank you so much, for this and all your informative posts. Quote

I'm learning as I go pretty much along with everyone else. I hope this helps you make your own maul. All I ask is you post some photos! Can't wait to see it. Quote http://www.sevenhillsleather.com/
