1/2 of the Guinness is now gone....
Since Paul Sellers seems to like that style of hammer, thought i would at least try one.
As for a wooden mallet...

I've turned a few myself; I was thinking of a jointers mallet! :-)

I have actually used a hammer similar to Bandit's for decades-hard plastic face and soft rubber face. Craftsman brand and now available at Lowes. Worked very well. Lesser used is a "Wood is Good" brand round mallet.
