Mallet
Woodworking Tool
The mallet is often used in woodworking to avoid damaging delicate surfaces while applying force.

Carefully strike the carving tool with the mallet.
Soft Strikes
A mallet's large head distributes force for gentler strikes compared to a metal hammer.

Use the mallet, not a hammer, to assemble the wooden furniture.
Chisel Partner
Mallets are specifically designed to work with chisels, particularly in carpentry and sculpture.

Gently tap the chisel with the mallet to shape the wood.
