Hey, just made myself some new pairs of nunchucks!
First is black plastic with a solid oak core and ball bearing/swivel. 12" handels.

The second is somewhat half-way done. They function fine, but I am going to covert them into fire chucks, so I can do double firechucks. It has 15" handels, and normal non-swivel links. The chain is held in with a nut and bolt, do you reckon that will be ok?

Here is a pic:


And here is my finished set of firechucks:

Oh right cool. Thanks for the compliments. My next set will be improved though. I'm going to make 2 (maybe 3) new sets of firenunchucks. Glustonburry is gonna be cool.

I thought this is a picture of Rob's Fire Nunchaku but it's yours, wow
Already noticed that you copied his technique  :-D

They look really nice. How long did you wrap the kevler wick around it?

Sorry what? Yeah I used his tutorial. :D

The wick is 65mm wide, 3.5mm thick, and 50cm long for each handel.

Yeah well, I wanted them to be as good as possible, and his method seemed to be the best.

Another festival chucker  :-)

Not sure if I'll be at Glasto this year (Ill try, but money's tight) but I'll be at Reading for sure.

Your fire chucks look great, I still stick with glowsticks instead of flames - but I'm sure you'll have a blast with them.
