Tools and materials I propose:
I begun with a piece of spalted platani.
I first cut it to size with my chainsaw. Then I found it’s centres and turned it true on the lathe with a roughing gouge.
I then shaped it with the bowl gouge to fit my hand.
With the skew and a wire burner, I created a few lines on the handle for better grip.
I then cut it off the lathe and applied a coat of mineral oil.
My mallet turned out really nice.
But that was it, see you soon with a new project video.
