    Ben's Worx- would you mind passing on size and type of wood that is best for this project.... Thanks for any help you can pass on

      +B.jaynee Holleran Hi jaynee the easiest wood to use is a length of hardwood 100mm x 100mm square alternatively you can laminate pieces together to get the desired thickness you want, i have found that 1 solid piece of hardwood gives the right amount of flex and doesn't sag over time, hope this helps

    Hi Ben :-)
    How much did you use 3mm foam rubber and real suede for making this padded gymnastics balance beam?
    What was the name of the glue spray that you used?
    I loved your video. Our daughter is a gymnastic girl age 8 years old and need to trains more at home on a gymnastics balance beam . She exercise on her gymnastic club 3 times in a week 6 hours a week. We'll like to make this gymnastics balance beam for her as a Christmas present.

    • @BensWorx
      @BensWorx  8 лет назад +1

      +Elsi Tollefsen Hi Elsi, the foam you use can be bought in any size and cut to what you need, i used appropriately 2 square meters, as for the suede you will need continuous lengths. So i used a piece that was 3.5 meters long by .5 wide. The contact spray is made by a company called selleys and its called kwik grip. But any contact adhesive will work but i do recommend a spray pack for easy application. I hope you can make one before Christmas as your daughter will love it. Thanks for watching

      By the way can you recommend this:
      3M™ Hi-Strength 90 Spray Adhesive ?

    • @BensWorx
      @BensWorx  8 лет назад +1

      +Elsi Tollefsen yes the 3m 90 will work fine just follow the instructions on the can. :)

    • @BensWorx
      @BensWorx  7 лет назад +1

    • @rajneilg
      @rajneilg 7 лет назад

    • @BensWorx
      @BensWorx  7 лет назад +1

      +Reg Go yes that should be ok you may get i little extra flex depending on the length
