the sketchy idea
tink20seven:
we start with two ordinary ski poles
tink20seven:
mark out two 8" pieces of extra thick PVC pipe
tink20seven:
a little brotherly teamwork
tink20seven:
and voila! two mallet heads
tink20seven:
no need to remove the plastic guards
tink20seven:
just trim off the ends
tink20seven:
make sure to tap your holes before drilling with the larger bit
tink20seven:
it's a pretty snug fit
tink20seven:
Slide the bolt through
tink20seven:
some heavy concentration
tink20seven:
Apply a little glue to the threads, and tighten it up!
tink20seven:
Grinding down the excess
tink20seven:
prepping to wrap the handle
tink20seven:
wrapping the grip with an inner tube
tink20seven:
the grip - before
tink20seven:
the grip - after
tink20seven:
prepping the epoxy
