I've had mine for at least 5 years. It's gets abused. Still going strong. For some reason it keeps an edge longer than my larger plane

Thank you $ir.🎉

I have three of these in total, two are complete. Stanleys I think. They are fantastic, and perfect to get the children into woodworking. They plane for literal hours, enjoying the process.

Ah Ha!! At last

Nice work

Thank you for the information and yeah you’re right I don’t need more than six inches.

Why would I construct something with those big ass holes to fill on the finish side rather than use another method?

You are a bonafide genius. ❤😊

Cool

I'm not trying to knock your jig, I'm probably going to make something like this. I've always glued dowels in the holes and flush cut them

Hey Makers! Quick, simple jig that produces results. I might do a follow up with this on my second channel @makethingswithrob ...we'll see.

Good tips, but you need to get rid of the noise when you show what bite size tip it is. It's detracting from your voice over and not all your words are intelligible.

Just set the teeth to track in the centre of the tyre, so the tension is at the gullet of the band. You can't get any band saw to track if it's tensioned at the rear of the band...

Woah, that counterskink tells me why you’re a woodworker. Just kidding man, keep up the good work!

Say it together children. COUNTERSINK

Nice work!

There are those steel rulers about a meter long. They are even better as they are more "springy" than aluminium. =)

I was hoping you was gon shoot am arrow

Very clever Rob, thank you mate.

Truly a thing of beauty, Rob! I turned my carver's mallet a few years ago. I used Texas Ebony and Bocote. And I love it!

Why wouldn’t you sand the dowels flat instead of using the a chisel ? You had already belt sanded the 2 sides of the mallet?

Neat tip! Would've never thought of that.

Hey Makers! I used this in my latest video, "The Huntsman's Mallet" Check it out on my 'Videos' tab!

Stunning.

Thanks a lot! I just purchased my first drill press and was a little confused.

Your craftmanship is amazing. Is this your fulltime job or just pleasure?

How does curry sauce holds wood together though?

Far to nice to ever use!!

That was a fun build. I need to make a mallet mysellf.

Wow what an absolute amazing mallet. Amazing job Sir always so amazing watching you work a true artist and craftsmen

Mallets from scrap are awesome and super cheap and easy. I did a Thor's Hammer one tume for haloween, forstner bit and some PVC pipe, hot glue or epoxy to hold it in. Add in a hand stitched leather strap, a little bit of spray paint, and you have a funtional tool and Halloween prop, all in one.

Well done production in a well-made mallet wonderful craftsmanship Columbus Michigan

Where are the plans?

Wonderful mallet, Rob! Really beautiful work! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

out of curiosity, why not have the dowels go all the way through? why have shorter dowels AND plugs?

A wise man once sent me a cipher that decoded to "A good woodworking mallet delivers a message; carve your path with precision and let your work make the noise." I think that applies here. ;)

Perfect timing. I'm planning on making a batch of mallets this weekend.

Terrific work on making that beautiful mallet! 👍👍🔨🔨

Most of problem is finding the right bit for the hole size. I use dime size neodymium magnets to keep the sizes need to the metal index case for bits!

Not just a tool - it's a work of art

Awesome mallet man, one of the nicest I've seen in a while!! Nice work 👏👏

OK for small pieces, but not really adequate for most bowls or vessels.

Please quote metric as well, if you want your videos to appeal to anyone outside of the US.

Great variety of skills there Rob for a lovely outcome.

I just deleted my file on Trac Saws…..and created a new file. What a simple full proof method for a track saw. Fantastic idea and thanks for sharing!

I would say "Check your drill table to make sure it's perfectly square to the drill bit, oftentimes they can drift from things banging into them" Also, almost all drill bit chucks can be upgraded. I got a nice hand-tightened chuck off of Temu or Ali Express or Ebay, can't remember which, but it was the best 36 bucks I've ever spent. I never have to worry about the chuck key anymore.
