Not a good picture, but you can see the commitment of a serving mallet for once.
Best regards

Pete, I have no idea how you would make something that tiny that works. Maybe if I could create a miniature person to operate it... I know my ham fists couldn't handle it.It is ,indeed a serving mallet. I wonder if a scaled down version would work for model building? I saw a similar device in one of the old Model Shipways plans or publications. Any ideas or suggestions? Served portions of standing rigging look great on models and a version of this device appropriately scaled seems a whole lot more simple and convenient than some of the current devices I've seen.
