I use waxed nylon thread and a large leatherworking needle.

These are marimba mallets correct?. Piano mallets may be different, do you use the black glue for the black key notes? Vacuum is good and have used it on saxophone reeds to impregnate machined cane with resin. Health & Peace, Lance

Piano mallets are felt. Karl

Piano mallets are wood with thicket of felt glued onto them like bumpers on the pool tables. And the less you're fetish the piano mallets are better heard than felt so my kids is laughting know!

And leather filed with lead shot? that is a black jack or so we called it as kids in the hells kitchen of Bristol. Happy Holidays! Al Babin & Sons (iso 9000 complaint job shop, part time K-mart cashier for holidays, repair and rebuilding of machinery, custom pool cues and covers)
