Looks like nice work by FC! :2tsup:
Hey nz, do they have some weight to them, as they certainly look like dense timber?
And good on you for showing credit where its due!

Lovely job! Are those in order as per the first photo, or is the second mallet Brushbox and the one on the right, Sydney Blue Gum? The different weights are rather convenient.

In the first picture the order goes: Blue Gum, Brushbox, Stringybark

Ah! There isn't much 'blue' about Blue Gum.

Has anyone made a mallet from Mahogany Gum? Apparently it weighs 930 kg m3, so obviously has some heft to it.
