  • In each episode of DiResta (every other Wednesday), artist and master builder Jimmy DiResta (Dirty Money, Hammered, Against the Grain, Trash for Cash) lets us into his workshop, to look over his shoulder while he builds whatever strikes his fancy.
    In this episode, DiResta makes mallet from hardwood on a vintage wood lathe. The result is a practical piece of art. If you're a fan of woodturning, this episode is for you. Read all about it on MAKE: makezine.com/vi...

    Never would have though to turn them at the same time. Well done man.

    my heart stopped when he cut the handle from the head on the band saw, but then i remembered jimmy knows more than me...

      warren buitandag I thought it looked strange and was trying to work out what kind of mallet it was, and when he cut the head off I was like "Ahhhhh what is he doing!"... But then realised the genius

      +Oliver Carr I've seen woodworking mallets that looked the way before he cut it .

    • @davidjohnston1971
      @davidjohnston1971 8 років тому +2

      +ranwolf76Those are called carving or setter's mauls. The cylindrical or tapered cylinder head provides more accurate strikes to carving chisels than a flat faced mallet.

    This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxkNYRBJuiJ6EwD-tQSAlxg0eFKsnR2cgz I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seems to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.

    Even with the fish eye lens the lathe barely fits in the shot. It was a good way to get us in there to see the work. Great video Jimmy.

    I think him chiseling out the DiResta thing at the end was more work than him making the actual mallet lol

  • @jonathan__g
    @jonathan__g 9 років тому

    Amazing work as always! I would love to see a combo mallet in the sense of it being a wood head but a metal tube for the shaft and then again a wood handle (similar to the hatchet he made). I think that would pretty sweet.

    Jimmy could you do a tour around your workshop? I know its small but i love to hear about the history of the machine and tools you use. For example do you have some tips and tricks for storage, lay-out etc.

  • @SebastianGonzalez1
    @SebastianGonzalez1 10 років тому +1

    This is one of my favorites. I've been trying to learn how to use a lathe for a while now, and watching the skills you possess on that thing makes me beyond jealous. Great job!
    Do you still sell the stuff you make at the Hell's Kitchen flea market?

  • @68jacen
    @68jacen 11 років тому

    Appeared to be too much scraping and not enough slicing with the skew and gouges, but the job got done and looks great, liked how you turned the handle and head at the same time. After watching richard raffin, opened my mind to how one can use the skew.

  • @urkarmadonov

    Молодец! Сколько роликов посмотрел - все понравились. Руки как говорится откуда надо растут. По крепежу ручки этой киянки - на Руси ножки от табуреток в глухое отверстие забивали вставив клин как в топорище, в итоге забитая ножка расклинивалась намертво. Здесь можно было также ручку посадить.

    Here I was thinking he was going to leave it with the cylinder in place on the end. He cut it off and I thought he was destroying his funky whack-y stick!

    Yup, as others, I nearly had a stroke when you cut the handle off! Then, I went: Ooooh, that what he was measuring... Wondered what the hole was for... Thought you were going to fill it up wi lead or something to give it extra weight. Good vid.

  • @BobBlarneystone
    @BobBlarneystone 9 років тому

    Efficient and attractive work, but I have a few comments:
    1. Dust control would be a very good addition to this shop. Lungs are not disposable items.
    2. Wiping uncured epoxy with bare fingers/skin is not a safe or smart thing to do.
    3. I wouldn't have varnished the tenon, thus making it necessary to sand the varnish off again for gluing.
