Thanks Tom

How is your 5yr old taking to the stick?  My daughter loves it, though not as much as boxing.  I've been training her and my son in boxing\striking for the past 6 months.  Lots of fun!

Take care,
Emmett

Thanks for the info Gruhn!  I will give the miter saw a go this weekend.

As far as using regular sized sticks, I have a 28" that she likes to swing.  Perhaps, if my carpentry skill proves subpar 8-), I will make that her primary.

Thanks again for the information.

Take care,
Emmett

Martial Arts Topics / Greetings and a question

Hello all,

I hope my first post isn't a newbie question (I searched on the topic and came up blank).  I would like to start training my oldest child (6 year old daughter) and need advice on cutting down one of my sticks.  Is rattan a difficult material to cut?  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do it properly?  Or, perhaps someone has a source for shorter sticks; something in the 24" and under lengths?  Or any other suggestions as I may be going about this in the wrong way.

Thanks for any info you can provide.  And thanks for the great forum.  I have learned a lot as a lurker on this site, hopefully I will be able to contribute to it as well.

Take care,
Emmett
