I literally just bought a rubber mallet off Amazon like an hour ago. It'll work way better than duct taping a cork coaster to a hammer.

Having encountered the issue you describe, a mallet was one of my earliest tool purchases. Hard plastic on one side and hard rubber on the other. Indispensable. (In fact, I used it today to disassemble and reassemble a metal shelving unit.)

I’ve worn one out! These are the best. And for added options you can get an aluminum on one side, brass on the other.

I have two. There is no substitute once you've tried it.

Believe it or not, your typical dollar store will frequently have acceptable rubber mallets. (Not a dollar, but very reasonable). Also, variants of “batoning” (striking a tool with wood) and/or using a wood block to diffuse impact with a hammer can work quite nicely.

Rubber mallet definitely an under appreciated piece of kit
