Your attention to detail is THE standard others should follow. Great work as always. I commend you on the wood turning as well. I would have NO patience for that. I would end up just grabbing a hatchet out of frustration and making firewood. Take care.
Thank you! Due to time constraints, I am not able to show all of the mistakes that tested my patience. Overall it was an incredibly fun project and I got to practice some new skills. See you in the next one! 🍻
The time, effort and energy you put into making your videos is as much appreciated as the final always are. Your work always fascinates me. I am awed time and time again to watch as you take a forsaken item and turn it into something of beauty and value.
Thank you!! This was my first time trying detailed lathe turning. It was so much work but also fun. Thank you for the wonderful feedback. I am happy you like it. Cheers!
Thank you so very much! I am so happy you enjoyed watching this project. It is one of my favorites but I can't seem to get anyone to watch it!! Thanks!!! 🍀
Absolutely amazing job 🎉 I don't understand why this hasn't more views!?! It's definitely not because you didn't do a good job, I think it's great and I haven't seen another one like it. Thanks for sharing your talent with us. ❤😊
Thank you so much!! I feel the same way! This was one of my favorites and I was very excited to post it but the impressions were less than impressive so not many people have had a chance to see it. Happens sometimes.
Thank you for watching this...not many people have!! I had a lot of fun doing this one. It was my first time taking on something like this on the lathe and it gave me the confidence to try more intricate turnings. ✌🏽
Tô admirada como um pedaço de madeira foi ganhando forma e muitos detalhes, através de sua habilidade ! It's amazing!!! Congratulation! Ahh, o taco que você fez foi o verde?😊❤
Obrigado! Fiz este projeto há um ano e na verdade não consigo me lembrar quais marretas fiz. Talvez o verde e o vermelho? Preciso voltar e assistir!! 🌻
It looks great and you did a wonderful job restoring it as well!!!! I haven't played croquet since I was in my teens 40 years ago, it's a great looking set!!! Enjoyed your video so I gave it a Thumbs Up
Question for you: I'm doing this almost exact same thing. Question on the polyurethane over the testors paint - was that oil based? I see you did paint, then minwax then you mentioned polyurethane. I don't want my paint to bubble up or apply items in the wrong order. Thank you!
Yes I used all oil based finishes on this project. The testors paints are enamel and I finished with a std urethane finish. Once cured, it is fairly strong.
What did you use for wood filler for the cracks? And what type of paint did you use for the stripes on balls/mallets? I’m restoring a croquet set too and I want to make sure it lasts
I used a rubber based glue mixed with sawdust to fill cracks on the balls. I felt it needed to be flexible to take on the stress of being hit but also strong enough to keep the cracks from expanding. It's been a year and so far so good! The paint was Testors brand enamel hobby paint. It's all I had and it's held up fine, especially with the poly coating protecting it. Thanks for asking and good luck with your project!
Acho que vc tem o mesmo prazer que eu, quando chega em casa com um pedaço de madeira e sua mulher diz : VOCE TÁ TRAZENDO MAIS LIXO PRA CASA ! E o lixo { no caso os tacos de bilhar } é exatamente o que vc precisa para concluir um projeto. Realmente é satisfatório.
Sim, eu a ouvi dizer isso tantas vezes. E muitas vezes eu tenho que concordar que ela provavelmente está certa, mas isso não me impede de pegar tudo só para o caso de eu encontrar um uso para isso!!
The tap and die is sold as a kit and can be found on Amazon, eBay, or probably any local wood working shop. I don't remember the size I used for this one, maybe 3/4 inch? Several sizes can be found and it will depend on the diameter of the shaft to be inserted. Thanks for asking!

This video is an absolute joy to watch. Thank you, sir. You do fantastic work.
Wow! That's very nice of you to write. Thank you!
Good bit of recycling there! The tearing off the tape after painting was so satisfying to watch 🤓
Removing the tape was super satisfying! It came off really clean this time. Thanks!
Excellent work. You got some crazy good skills on the lathe too.
I don't know about those skills but thank you for saying so. 🍻
Excellent restoration! Keep up good work! Good luck!
Thank you! 🤙

Where do you find the drills to put the hole in mallet and what are the diameters?
The tap and die is sold as a kit and can be found on Amazon, eBay, or probably any local wood working shop. I don't remember the size I used for this one, maybe 3/4 inch? Several sizes can be found and it will depend on the diameter of the shaft to be inserted. Thanks for asking!
