Default Making a brass carving mallet

I am making a brass carving mallet, but as a newbie, I don't know the best
way to match up the diameter of the handle where it joins the head. I
machined up a hammer head and drilled a hole in it for a dowel to join the
handle to it, but how does one get the nice, smooth transition from the
handle to the head?
