thank you for the info.But being a man of shall we say 'simple' monetary gains I was hoping if anyone may have come up with a cheap easy to build design- say for example pvc (or if thats even good material at all) but thank you for the info.

all of the threads I've checked out will no longer allow access.to sites? maybe I'm doing something wrong, I'm not computer savvy

They may just be broken links or something. Sorry, I know nothing about cheap do it yourself wooden dummies. :idunno:

I found this for you (http://www.springtimesong.com/wcdummyplans1.htm). Hope it helps.

Strange how I always thought wooden dummies to be free standing with a heavy base, ala wavemasters or something like it. The plans (all of the ones provided) show a frame work to provide support.
To my understanding one isn't supposed to hit the wooden arms (and leg) that hard. Mainly to provide training/practice for speed and accuracy.
I'd like to have one someday for myself. At least there's plans provide to build one's own ... if one has the tools and woodshop to do so.
Mebbe someday eh?
The idea to build one out of PVC (or better ABS) is not a bad one at all by the way.

Gottcha. I saw this about a year ago. I cant speak for quality, but you might want to give it a try. approx cost is 30$.
