Big Ash Mallet

I am on a quest to build some Appalachia style ladder back chairs, or shaker chairs as well, and one of the tools I have been in dire need of is a mallet to strike wood, and chisel with. So after a little bit of research, I came up with my own design, and I had a great time too!

Thanks for looking at my Big Ash Mallet, and no, the title is not original, it was from a Roy Underhill episode!

Love the hand tools usage. Would love to know the angles on the heads. Just guessing -3 or 4 degrees?

Man, I missed this one Gator! I don't remember as a matter of fact, very slight angles is all it takes to hold the handles in though, thanks for asking this question, almost a year ago!
