The flat will keep it from rolling on the bench!madwing malletupright.jpgOsage Orange Mallet187 viewsI turned this, with much help from Larry McVoy, at this year's Bagathon. It's from a piece of Osage Orange (Bois D'Arc) sent to me by Roger Birkhead back in '04. About 4" diameter at the mallet, a little longer than a foot overall. Needs cleanup at the small end, that's what's left after parting.madwing 100_5389.JPG34 viewsEnd view.
