If you're in the US, I would highly recommend Dark Monk

I appreciate your kind words, and yes! They do work just fine. I also really love tinkering and creating things I enjoy while backpacking across this crazy planet. I love that part you wrote "Every failure is a success" it reminds me of Thomas Edison and how it took over 1000 attempts before he created the lightbulb :) Concerning those with other opinions, my motto is "Judge not lest thee be judged". Clearly some of the lessons they need have not been brought forth into their experience yet or? Just an observation... not a judgement. ;) Either way, I might never know, nor do I care to waste energy there :) Shit gold. That's funny though. Flame on kind soul!!

@PeZoNeD3N Everyone is absolutely free to do as they choose! I have personally played with this particular set of poi well over 50 times and they still work just fine <3 I usually only play for about 15 minutes and then switch to the LED because the fire poi really is a workout! I taught myself how to make them when I was sailing on a catamaran and the only place to buy hardware was at a marina boat shop so... this is what I was able to create and share :) You are free to share a link here to something you like/prefer <3

Thank you <3

Thank you!! :D

Cool! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and tips! Do you have a place where others can see what you make? Do share!! :)

Hello dog groomer - where are you going?

seems so... !!

Kevlar wick is usually what it's known as, hope that helps

go for it

Hahah the what?? :)

Thanks Mark :) It took a tribe...

(( <3 ))

Thank you for the feedback. Yes, I also learned that when holding the handle and extending the arm, the fire pod should be at the armpit. I was told that makes for the best size and creates more range of movements and tricks. Perhaps its the same thing but different way to measure?

I do not know but my way is for extensions. If you do extensions with those poi they will hit the floor. Post more poi vids and enjoy the flow!

Hey I am glad it helped inspire you to get creative and make some! How do you like it? Did you make any adjustments or learn anything new?

onenomadwoman I used 3 foot dog chains, 3/4 inch flat tip eye bolts with the same set up with nuts and washers. Used locktight red and hardened it with a lighter. I used 2 full 3ft rolls of Kevlar tape; now the hard part was using an ice pick then having to shove those thick bolts through a solid roll of Kevlar. (Lol that took a serious feat of strength). Took some finger loops off my practice poi and just sew some leather onto the inside of the loop. Used some small screw on quick links for the finger loops and large screw on quick links to attach the poi. I used galvanized steel for the bolt, but and washers then sprayed it with high heat grill paint. Side note: Because I used so much Kevlar , I have huge fire poi with super long chains and it's very heavy when swinging, but I'm a weight lifter so it's not too much of an issue I just have to be careful not to castrate myself or knock my head off. (It happens from time to time). But for real I purposely overbuilt my set so that there would be a lower chance of something breaking or flying off. The only 2 draw backs is the weight , and length (adjusted by spinning around my hands). Have to check everything before and after use. I've lit them up about 15 times and they don't show too much wear. The only trick I've learned is to use Naptha fuel, it's low heat and Burns white and doesn't put too much wear on the poi. Sorry for such a long comment; and thank you again for showing how to make poi on the cheap end. (Kevlar isn't cheap though)

@@nerdofgod4167 Thank you for sharing your experience! It's fun to create!!

There are many ways to light them up- the hotter the stuff used burns though, the less life your kevlar or jean material will have. I like to use cool burning lamp oil :) LEDs are also awesome! I love to play with LED poi as well in more crowded areas ;) So the LED pipe dream.. is that like an LED strip of some sort? How do you use it?

why? just want to know why its not a good desing

@@PanyandKham oh there's a lot... Just compare it to good ones and think about why they are good ;) Some points. This one would be far to light, the whick is to loose and it's really unsafe secured with just one nut that hold all together...

@matthew kemp Hi Matthew! That is probably mostly true, as I was quite an amateur when I made this video. I wanted to play fire poi while sailing in the med, and was only able to buy material from a boat shop, sooooo this is what I made. They have worked wonderfully for me <3

@pinecone Well, that has not been my experience while playing with this particular set. They are quite heavy actually and give a fantastic work out for the chest, shoulders and arms! I have played with these many, many times, and always check them before and after play, and haven't had any issues. Sure, every now and then I give them some tightening, but not that often. They are - perhaps surprisingly, quite secure.

Sorry about that! Life!! Hahah Naturally as I live this, I have the content, I just haven't filmed, edited and shared it yet! As fate would have it though, I will have 5 months free this winter to finally finish creating all the backlogged content! I will send you a link personally when the next video is ready :) Here is a tip to get you started- BEGIN WITH STILLNESS. ;) Sounds simple right?!

+onenomadwoman aww bless ya! No worries, no stress. I'll look forward to it and will enjoy your vids when they happen! 😀💜

Thank you Sarah :) I am creating a NEW video that is a FULL ON minimalist backpack video that should be up very soon! It's literally traveling around the world in just ONE 30L backpack. I didn't believe it could be done, until I did it ;) If you are curious, subscribe and stay tuned!!

EASY BABY ;)

Thank you :)

Thank you Goutam! Personally, I feel that reaching out and recognizing that we are all one and sharing that energy is the best way we can spend our short time here... living in joy and harmony. But it is up to us to make that happen right?! Be the change you wish to see...

@@onenomadwoman yes of course.. !!

Seriously the cinch sacks are incredible to have! Well, that, and using them also allows you to get your fitness on as your pack will no doubt become heavier :P
