| Buy "The Big Book of Fencing", it has a large section with a full set of plans for making a real fencing dummy. Alternately you could just get Dr. Volkman to make you one. He's the contact for the Augusta Fencer's Club in Augusta, Ga.

| Jeebus,
I already have his book, and my dummy is real dammit. Anyway, I much prefer using bungee cords. I can adjust the tension however I like. Springs have this stupid constant K thingymabob.
D'Art,
Yes, I am crazy, but I have to practice somehow!
Kshan,
I would never date a fencer chick. They are all badly lopsided. In addition, the foilists whine too much, the sabrist scream are crazy, and epéeist are taken. :P

And trust me, not ALL epeeists are taken! (no, I'm not referring to myself!)  | |

| *ROTFLOL* I like her... she's cute... nice body. But she doesn't seem to have much personality.
Hey, *I*'m an epeeist, and I'm not taken. None of the women's epee team is taken right now. Then again, at least as far as me, that might not be surprising. I mean, I'm so short, everyone looks for Myra and thinks "well, heck, dunno where she went, I'll go ask someone ELSE out."
Actually, being 5'6" makes me the tallest of the women's epee team. Which might explain why the mens team can't find the women's team. The men start at 6'3", and top out with the two tied at 6'8". WOO! | |

| The women will get your toes, and they guys will get you in the head... it's so much fun to fence foil with them *grin*

| Agh... found out! But you know I like toes... they're CLOSE to me! And while the other two may fence foil, you've seen how much I do.  Quote: |

| Weeeeeelll... that might be. You'd fit in just fine on our team! Hmm... is that such a bad thing? | |
