Multi use tool for daily use depending on your job, hobby, or other activities.
Use it to rough check your tire pressure by hearing the tone.
Use it for humanly dispatching fish, whether out deep-sea fishing or hauling in a huge northern pike up through a hole in the ice...
Whatever you use it for, here's how to make them on a wood lathe.
I make two in this video, one from cherry wood and the other from bacote.
Also, seen briefly in this video is my daily driver, a nice mid size truck that was just videoed for the KZfaq channel: / @awesomecarsforever

I was issued with a wooden truncheon, a smaller version of what you’ve made here, when I joined the police in the UK (a very long time ago…). Of course modernity came along and they were replaced by friction-lock batons and so on…but when I retired a wood turning colleague made me one as a retirement gift and it now has pride of place in my display cabinet. A good little film, thank you.

Wow..I was always wondering how you were tough enough to enter the streets without a gun on your hips. I served as a policemean from 1985 in Berlin West. Living in Spandau I was surrounded by britsih barracks and a met lots of Tommys in wash centers and Pubs. I assume you had not have a gun problem in the seventies and eighties as we have it now, but you must have been very couraged to leave your station without firearms.

Good morning, Brother. Watching videos like this gives me and many others, the opportunity to walk into other's shop. Experience the process of their project. Tools used, thoughts, unexpected issues and the excitement of looking at the finished piece. As if I was standing there too. The wood used for your 'thumpers' was a great choice and looks amazing. Making something for a friend adds another level of excitement. I appreciate your 'tailgate witness.' God Bless

Amazing job! I haven’t seen burning the glue before. I have to echo woottootzoot’s comment. Stumpy nubs showed that his hand got so damaged and the swelling was instant that he had to get his ring sawn off of his finger so he didn’t lose the finger. Please remove all metal. You just need your tool to snap back once, crack your finger or hand hard and the swelling could happen too fast to get the rings off. God Bless you!!! We care and want to enjoy years of safe videos with you. 🙏🙏🙏

But the explanation made sense. Now I can see why you wouldn't want to use soft pine for this. I could see them used for more than "checking tires." A real "intimidator" if you needed one.

I was thinking more along the lines of, Muad'Dib is wise in the ways of the desert. Muad'Dib creates his own water. Muad'Dib hides from the sun and travels in the cool night. Muad'Dib is fruitful and multiplies over the land. Muad'Dib we call 'instructor-of-boys.' That is a powerful base on which to build your life, Paul-Muad'Dib.

Watches rings and bracelets have no place around machinery period! After being in the HVAC elect and plumbing business for almost 40 years I have seen injuries related to accessories being worn that would make most people throw up at the sight. It's just not worth it no matter how good you are at your craft.

I was wondering what a 'thumper' was. Here in Scotland, we used something similar to dispatch salmon that we had caught in the nets.

Yep, same idea exactly. Multi-purpose tool. What do you call them in Scotland?

Well I don’t use a little bully bar. I have a piece of 1 1/2’ x 5ft rounded oak pole sitting by my bed it’s been my experience that being able to poke at arms reach your better off.

Incredibly disappointed this isn’t how to make an M79 40mm grenade launcher colloquially known as thumpers. But the end product looked really nice and relieved my disappointment.
