well do you folks remeber these?
well i had asked chuck to make me a mallet for chopping dovetails and such,, and he sent along 5 mallets which i kept two and gave the others to the ones they were intended to go to..
but what i am here to say is that we can get things made for us by others in our forum, which does two things,, it keeps us closer and may help them in there hobby costs. be it a trade system or just a better relationship with them. as i was using this mallet today i had to think back at his thread and the time he took to make the mallets for someone like me..and the enjoyment i was having from using a quality tool that was made for me by a friend.. just as i had bernie make a pepper mill for my SIL..
so here is the LINK to where these mallet originated and a very good example of quality in the making..
thanks again chuck for these and every time i hit something i will think of you in a good way
