剣道の人形 (Kendo Dummy)

From Kendo Dummy

生きた!!!ま、そこまでじゃなくて。:-p ピヴィシパイプを使って、六時間をかかった。目的は軽くて、簡単に運転できればの人形。木曜日の剣道練習に一人で防具、竹刀、と人形を運転した。

面と胴の練習は思ったとおりできる。小手の方もできるけど、完璧じゃない。特に小手面の練習。小手は人形の体に近すぎるだから、小手面の練習は難しいになている。そして、突きの練習もちょっと駄目だ。もし突きの練習がほしれば、ベースのデサインをもっと複雑と重いにしなければなれない。目的と違うだから、僕はもう満足です。

It's alive!!! Well... not really. :-p Using PVC pipes, it took about 6 hours to make. The goal was a light, easily transportable kendo dummy. For Thursday's kendo practice, I transported my bogu, shinai, and the dummy all by myself. (The top and bottom of the dummy disassemble)

It works well for practicing men and do. However, it's not perfect for kote. Especially kote men. The kote is too close to the body of the dummy, so practicing kote men becomes difficult. Also, the dummy is not good for practicing tsuki. If it is to be designed for tsuki practice, the design of the base will have to be heavier and more complicated. Since that contradicts the goal of the dummy, I'm satisfied to do without it.
