Ever wonder how Chinese nunchaku are made?

Tada!

I don't understand pic #4. What's that screw for?

[Choggy]

  now that's DAMN easy to make.

Satriyo, as I understood from BG's pics, you can just kill the thread and round the head on a screw, pierce a hole through it... and there you have it!


Thanks a lot BG!

Ooh i see! So the swivel is made from a screw!

[psionics]

  nice!! now I know how it's done 

[Yetibutt]

Those are sweet.  They look maybe a bit clunky, but solid. 

[Aerialist East]

Tada!

real crappy

[Satriyo]

real crappy

Yeah, but after polished & chromed i bet they'll look really cool

[$e@n]

The look really heavy!
Gotta say that's some fine craftsmanship though.

I know your silver fires are different Levi.  yours are better.

Screw = Swivel?! woah! brilliant idea!

[junfan]

  yeah tour thread is great but for me chinese nunchakus is still better than the others.

a screw not a bad idea i had bought a cheap swivel pair a while ago and the bearing broke while i was swinging around after about a month or 2 so i made a rope pair with some light wood n they have lasted quite a while but i think a screw would be much harder to break than a bearing split into 2, the middle piece came out.
