updated 1 of 5 working toolsMark MasonrysymbolismMallet

The working tools of a Mark Master Mason are the Mallet and Chisel, as an article on The Square Magazine's website records, though the Provincial Grand Lodge of Mark Master Masons of Guernsey and Alderney depicts them on its token as a Heavy Maul and Chisel.

Symbolically, the Mallet carries the same emblematic meaning as the common gavel, serving to correct irregularities of temper 1. It represents enlightened reason, teaching the Mason to curb unbridled ambition, depress envy, and moderate anger 1. In this way, it removes mental excrescences to fit the mind, like a well-wrought stone, for an exalted place in the great temple of nature 1.
