I show a brief summary of how I made these quality croquet mallets for a customer! They are not regulation size, but they are still very much made to the same standard!
Well done, keep knocking them out "" you can make a fortune. just put some plates on the head ends either aluminium or plastic and some sighting lines along the top of the head,and stop throwing stuff at the little lady Bro.
Given he started out our round and went square, you could easily start out square and round the edges. A square start is better since his handles are too thin. So then you have to fit them to your heads, which is easy if you have a lathe, or you can do the same TS rounding with a jig, just fit the hole to the square or rounded handles, or make a piece that fits over the handle like a washer to make it round, etc... Or when you glue up the heads, leave a square mortise, and fit the handles in mortise and tenon style, or use a spokeshave to round the ends. Or a router dowel making jig. There are so many ways.

Looks a lot better than the Ogalala ones! Neat work.
Nice job. Im going to make some!
Awesome video
Love this. Very cool how you do this. Where did you get the drying rack? Or did you make that?
Those are gorgeous!
Where do you find oak dowel rods? All I can ever find is cheap pine.

Thanks for the video. It's not a pro set because they are not weighted, but great for lawn croquet I'm sure.
Yes a bit light.
