Juggling clubs made from old newspapers

If you're interested in club juggling and want to recycle newspaper, this is an excellent way of doing it.

This is how I made my first clubs, back when I learned to juggle clubs. They're definitely not as well-balanced as "proper clubs", but with a bit of practice, they're quite jugglable.

Materials needed:
 + Six newspapers (ide3ally about the same page count and size)
 + Tape

Tools needed:
 + Knife or scissors

Step 1

Find a quiet spot, with enough flat space to allow you to work. You'll need six newspapers, one knife (or a pair of scissors) and some tape to build three juggling clubs.

put some tape on the handle so you dont get any paper cuts

could one perhaps set the ends on fire for a more dangerous act? haha very cool instructable!

I suspect they're not very suited for fire juggling. While the paper ends up being pretty dense, I suspect they'd burn to "unusable" in only a few minutes.

Besides being easy and super inexpensive, wouldn't these also be quieter than wood clubs when dropped?

I guess that depends on how tightly you roll them. They're pretty dense and make a "thunk" when landing.

I normally use the piece of "core" poking out as the handle.

I was just searching around and found this. I think I'm going to make them. I'll tell you how they work when I'm done.
