The mallet is finally done! How could such a small thing take so long?
I cut the extra piece off with my flush trim saw.

This was the first time that I used the saw and it would appear that I cut a little too aggresively.

60 grit sandpaper smoothed it right out. Followed by 80 and 120.

Time for the finish.

Now I just need to put some leather on the end to cushion the blows. These 2 pieces of leather took me forever to find. No shops around me sell leather.
I cut 2 pieces down to size. I am going to save the black for the next mallet.
I put the glue on both sides and let it get tacky.
A little weight to help the bonding.
I then cut the excess off with a razor blade knife.
All trimmed up!
THE MALLET IS DONE!
