Build your own Juggling Clubs

There are many great instructions around the web on how to make juggling balls, but very few for juggling clubs. This is a simple and cost efficient way to make some, the only thing I needed to buy was some PVC pipe.

Step 1 Tools and Components

Tools needed:

Utility knife or Scissors (something to cut tape with, or you can just tear it)
Hack saw, or Circular saw(or what ever you have available for use to cut PVC piping)

Components:

10 ft. 1/2 in. PVC pipe
Electrical tape
Friction tape
Empty plastic bottle (I used 16.9 oz. Pepsi bottle)
Spray paint optional

Not too bad at all. You can also fill the empty bottles with glitter, etc. to make it all fancy...Your layout is definitely the easiest I have seen so far, but if you are looking for something a little more professional and only moderately more difficult you should check out this site:

Almost the exact same setup as yours, but the wooden dowels and tennis balls add the weight that's useful in turning the clubs.

Still, for a couple pieces of PVC, a few bottles and some electrical tape these are pretty nice clubs! I'll make a set and try them out.

nice 'ible, they look suprisingly good for some pepsi bottles and pvc. i'm not sure, but aren't juggling clubs supposed to be weighted in the club end?you could do this by pouring (the same amount in each) of sement or plaster of paris down through the pipe before sealing the end. this would also work to keep the weight in the center of the bottle and might even help to hold it on

NICE. On the paint Kroylon makes a paint called Fusion. Its made just for plastics.
