Wing Chun Dummy Making. You will see how i make the 3 arms in detail. Here is the plans video. • WING CHUN DUMMY CONSTR... This is how I made the first dummy. • dummy construction 4
Just got to get all my tools first and then the lumber. I really like the stand that you made. Actually, I like the dummy very much for sure. Thanks for putting all those clips up.
When drilling the holes to position the pegs for the arms, should any space be allowed between back of body and peg, so that when practicing the arm can be grasped and pulled slightly forward, for example, as if off-balancing the opponent by pulling his arm while attacking the leg? If such forward-backward play is desirable, how much space would you recommend between dummy body and peg? Thank you.
@@TOMMYBOY6969 Thank you. As pro woodworker and great grandpa of young martial artist, I really appreciate the clarity of your 3D plans. Excellent presentation. I am adapting the plans to construct dummy to be installed outdoors with treated lumber post sunk into ground, but without concrete, only loose rock to fill space between post hole and post. I am hopeful this stone fill can be tweaked to provide the slight amount of responsive movement created by the box base you show in other videos. I am also achieving wiggle of top arms in a slightly different manner than you show, which I believe will produce same result but be simpler to execute: Instead of tapering the arm mortises from 2" to 2 3/8", I will make untapered 2" mortises and achieve equivalent wiggle by tapering the inserted portion of the arms by reducing their thickness at the back side by 3/8". Pretty sure the effect will be the same, but as woodworker am certain that tapering the arm will be easier to execute than tapering the mortise. Thanks again for the post and your prompt responses.
Nice work! I have a question I am inspired to learn wing Chun. I am a middle aged man. Do you have any recommendations on YT who I should follow. I want to learn the traditional way Thanks in advance Sir : )

Can you tell me how much side play is désirable at the bottom of the leg (foot)? You said approx 1-1/4 in. Sideplay for the arm but I am wandering for the leg?
@@TOMMYBOY6969 Thank you. When I finish the leg, I will be done. When you say 3/8" side movement, do you mean 3/8" play between leg and mortise in the dummy body, or do you mean that the foot end of the leg should only move 3/8"? Also, I notice that the length of the horizontal "thigh" of the leg in your Step 3 video drawings is considerably shorter than in the video where you show how you traced your own leg to come up with a leg shape. In the Step 3 drawing, the thigh appears to only be about 1/2 the length (12-13") of the arms, but in the one you later designed, it looks like the thigh is almost the same length as the arms. Which thigh length would you now recommend? (For my junior-sized Wing Chun practitioner, I went with 12," arms.)
TOMMYBOY6969 Good good, I have watched all the videos right though it looks amazing. I am making my own, But I just used a tree and drilled holes and uses baseball bats for arms, I have still to make the base, Maybe I will try this method for my 2nd dummy, I may need more power tools tho,
absolutely amazing, I'm so inspired now to make my own as well :D
This is wonderful. Just fabulous. Thank you for this wonderful video. Very helpful.
I'm very happy that I found your Channel. Amazing videos. I'm getting ready to start working on my own dummy. Haven't had one for a few years.
Have fun !

Yes, you should leave some space. When the arm is fully in, from the back of the dummy to the peg should have about 1/2 inch of space.

wooden space for the wooden leg to move side to side is 6mm. Dont forget to like and subscribe :)
How much side to side wiggle should there be for the leg? How much up and down, if any?
The leg from side movement is 3/8 and the back peg is 1/4 inch. Have fun.

will you be doing a part 8 and making the base?
Yes
TOMMYBOY6969 Good good,

I am making my own, But I just used a tree and drilled holes and uses baseball bats for arms, I have still to make the base,

Tamzon RUclips How did you drill the holes in, and at what angle?
