Chishis

I made my fist set of Chishi last night. Very easy construction. I had an old rake handle that I split in two, put some concrete screws at the end, then set that handle and screws into the concrete. this morning the concrete is still green and they will need a few more days to harden.

The larger one is about 35 lbs, the smaller about 25 lbs. I need to make some more with some less weight for the girls and wrist training. Because some of the exercises are pretty tough when using even a 25 lb chishi.

Next I need to make some makiwaras. I would like some to mount to the basement floor, but I haven't found any steel floor mounts yet.
