Wood Flooring Turned Mallets

Description

I have made more mallets. I have found a new source for wood to make the mallets. This wood was destined for the Portland airport renovation. A good friend of mine owns The Zena Forest Products that also makes the wood flooring tiles for the new airport renovation. I was able to scavenge a dumpster full of the rejected pieces for this flooring. I have glued these pieces together to make the heads for a series of Carver's mallets. The mallets also use the radial finger joint I've been using in the past to connect the head of the mallet with the handle of the mallet. Once the blank for the mallet is all glued up, I wood turned it into a mallet shape.
