Part Four
The handle needs to be wrapped and set.
(Look here for the previous part to this build)
This is where I left off from before.
I want to put a cap end on the top of the handle, so I grabbed this scrap that came from drilling the holes into the mallet head.
It will fit on top of there!
I cut more strips from the thinner EVA foam.
I began to wrap the handle at an angle.
Rubber cement all the way down.
I easily ran out of strips.
So I made many more!
I had enough to finish the pole length and some double and triple wrapping on the ends!
There, I got that top cap padded too
LOL
I was even able to make a sort of beveled-looking bit here just under the mallet head.
I think it looks like a big hammer now.
This concludes part four. In the next one, I'll show you the inside of the prop as I start turning it into a hidden storage area.
Come back for part five!
