Timber Frame Tools » Mallet Head Angle

• I’ve seen this issue come up and get discussed on several forums.
• A joiners mallet is pretty simple to make, so it is a quick and satisfying shop project to get one constructed, but then the question arises, “what angle should be put on the head?
• ” This is an important question with advice ranging from “we don’t need no stinking angle” to use the angle that allows it to sit flat on a bench.
