Title: Grind box - home made help please
Post by: JT71 on February 12, 2009, 12:18 PM
anyone made one?

Kendo being the ace metal worker he is is gonna knock me up a grind box.

just summat short for me to practice hoping on to and off, not worried about length

so any idea on the dimensions?

I'm thinking 6ft long x 32" wide and 16" high.

The height is the thing I'm not sure on, I've gone for ground to peg plus about 6" to require a decent hop to get the peg on. is this too much?

any advice appreciated.

Height sounds find mate if you can i would make it longer so you can get a decent grind/manual or whatever on it.

Don't make it too small - you'll be surprised what you can hop onto or over when its placed in front of you   ;)
