Excellent work!!!

Maybe you can sell the pool table and get a water cooler in there or something like that.

I think selling it could really help with maybe getting some bags or air cushions to hit.

Good luck :)

Actually that is just the belt rack for the Kids system, I added half/half colored belts between white - yellow - orange - purple - blue (4 total) to split up the material into managable bits.

I still need to put up a Half White/Half Yellow Belt, Blue Belt, Half Blue/Half Green Belt, Jr Black Belt and 2 master level belts (Red/Black, White/Red) then it will be complete!!
I want to show my students what is possible in the world of Kempo!
