My first ever collaboration!

This project started quite a while ago and its exciting to finally get to show it to everyone! We decided on both making half of a joining mallet. 

I started out by raiding the wood pile, one piece of applewood and one of spalted pine made the beginnings of the handles. A few months before I had harvested some old palm leaves that had a great textile like weave to them. I had been wanting to figure out a project to use them in and this definitely seemed like the right fit. 

Using mostly hand tools and epoxy I think we both got a pretty cool tool to have around the shop. Thanks again to Wood by Wright, had a lot of fun with this one.
