Menjo Posted July 28, 2005 Posted July 28, 2005 just wondering but...how do you homemake a makiwara? "Time is what we want most, but what we use worst"William Penn
Enviroman Posted July 28, 2005 Posted July 28, 2005 Almost nothing but I'm making a makiwara...which allows me to answer you, Menjo. Take a 4x4 board (8ft in length). Try finding cedar wood...it is flexible. I would avoid oak or pine. Oak is too inflexible and pine (also pretty inflexible) will warp and is generally pretty bad.If you want to make the board shorter (depending on your height) cut some of it now. You'll want about 3 feet of the board in the ground. I recommend waterproofing the board. You can use any of the cedar-specific treatments found at Home Depot (for decks or whatnot). Put it in the ground. Now you can put your striking surface on the board. Traditionally, you wrap hay with rope. I recommend a normal striking pad or maybe some heavy foam wrapped in cloth or leather.
