Kyle Devlin Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 What size should it be? Should i try a 2x6 or a 2x4, and How long should i cut it down to? I plan on ultimately putting them on canes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vagabond Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 A cut of about 6 inches usually work fine, but you should just see how you like it for your own hands. Some blocks are just 2x4 or 2x6 that are sanded, but some very good blocks are pieces of 2x4 wrapped by 1/4 plywood pieces, which corners are sanded. I've also seen blocks that were hollow in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yuri marmerstein Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 mine are hollow, made from pieces of plywood glued together. they are super light so that makes them a bit more convenient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Devlin Posted June 8, 2012 Author Share Posted June 8, 2012 Thanks for the replies. I just cut i 2x4 down to 5in long blocks. 6 inches felt a little too large. I also made canes, which i love I spent all day on them and now i can feel my fingers and forearms needing to recover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
