Les maillets. Ces outils sont fabriqués dans une matière suffisamment tendre pour ne pas produire un écrasement du métal en feuille, pendant l'opération de frappe à coups portants. [...] Les maillets en bois sont généralement en buis. [...] Les maillets sont obtenus par usinage au tour. Leur forme la plus courante est celle dite «forme tonneau», une des touches est plane, l'autre légèrement bombée. 2, record 2, French, - maillet%20en%20bois
