DIY Wing Chun Dummy APK

Build your very own Wing Chun Kung Fu Wooden Dummy! The dummy consists of a body with two upper arms at shoulder level, a lower arm at stomach height, and one leg, suspended on a framework by two crosspieces. As easy at it might looks to make a real wooden dummy is an extremely difficult task. For some this task has an incredible end result, a training partner with your sweat, blood and qi. Wooden Dummy Materials Teak was often traditionally used for all parts of the dummy. But, since solid blocks of this exotic hardwood are increasingly hard to find, you can use almost any strong hardwood – one that’s heavy, strong and dense, but not brittle. Some softwoods may not have enough strength to withstand the force applied to a dummy, or have the proper weight. Another problem with softer wood is that over time, as the arms and legs are struck repeatedly, they become compressed and more “sloppy” in their movement. Wooden Dummy Body Use hardwood for the body so its weight will correspond to that of a human body. This way if you can move the dummy you can also move a person. The body has a round cross section of about nine inches in diameter. Anything smaller doesn’t give the needed weight and requires adjustments in the length of arms and leg. The height of the body is five feet. Wooden Dummy Arms The arms should be the same material as the body, since they need as much strength. Stress on the arms is at the point where they enter the body. Turn the arms on a lathe, rather than make them by hand, since a smooth level surface is essential. Wooden Dummy Leg The leg is divided into two sections: one half extending through the dummy and out from the front center of the body to a “knee joint”, the other half extending down towards the “ankle”. Wooden Dummy Cross Pieces The dummy is suspended above the ground by two crosspieces or slats, each one inch wide by two inches high. Wooden Dummy Frame Mount your wing chun wooden dummy on two sturdy parallel upright wooden posts (four by eight is a good size) about five feet apart, or on any framework that adequately supports the weight of the dummy while allowing for its movement. want to know more? for further information and details, download this now and grab what you want. please enjoy this application and give us any feedback.
