Greene Tweed No. 1 Hammer

I would be curious if anyone knows how to make a hammerhead with it. It is pretty easy to get ahold of, I have a few large pieces.

I would guess you'd soak it and machine wind it really tight in a jig of some sort.
Then press into a mold and bake it in a low oven until it was hard as a brick.

  One of those jobs that would be too big to make just one, or only a few.

I used a used Osborne upholstery mallet for mine.
check out your local thrift stores for leather belts.

Couchspring what a great idea!
  Finding old upholstery/leather carving mallets is not that hard to do.
  And usually cheap when you do find one!
I am on the lookout for a big one now. I have a #2 that could use leather

Couch spring your mallet looks great. Did you make the handle as well?
