build your own wooden dummy

hey guys, a little nugget of info for y'all---- as you know, must of us have wooden dummy forms in our styles, but can only train on it during your time at your school/ dojo/ club etc...... now to buy one, is ****ing expensive, and unless you are rich; it aint gonna happen. but, there is good news!! I found a website that reckons you can build your own for about £ 70-£ 80 quid!!!! I haven't got the http adress, but if you type build your own wooden dummy into the search engine, you'll find it!!!!! hope this is useful to someone

No need to feel dumb
We've all done that at one time or another and it never hurts to bring it up again for new insight or fresh discussion, but if you yourself are interested in building one, check them out as there are good clues, tips and insights/experiences listed that can be of use.

Is this another obvious set-up? To us colonials, mate is usually a verb.

And knocking someone up doesn't involve a doorbell, at least not for most of us . . . You'd think we were obsessed or something.

Oh, well, keep your pecker up.
