Training safe in jedi ways

Another topic I wish to discuss is safety. I have read post on things like 'How to build a light saber' and other equipment. This is another way which I feel is safe and fun and you will still learn allot from.

Material needed:

1. 4 ft PVC pipe 1/2 inch

2. 5 ft of foam pipe inculation for 1/2 inch pipe

3. Duct tape Black or Gray

4. any one of these color tapes Red, Blue, or Green

First cover the PVC pipe with the foam, cut off the extra foam. Next use the duct tape and tape the foam in a spiral not to tight but firm all the way up. Cut the extra foam in two and cover the ends of the pipe and tape over them. Now it should all be covered Measure off 3' feet and tape with colored tape this will be the saber or blade. Again do not tape tight. The last 12" inches will be your handle design or duct tape this again as you wish. There you have it one light saber ready for a duel now all you need is a training partner.

Rules for dueling:

1. Hit to the head or body is a full kill.

2. Hit to arms or legs is a half kill

3. To win you must have a full kill

This is real simple but lots of fun and you will learn allot about yourself
and your ability. Remember train hard or don't train.
