Step 1Preparing the Magazines

Preparing the Magazines
You need 2 magazines, preferably both with around 50 pages. the magazines need to not have thick spines. it works best if the pages are just stapled together at the end instead of glued next to each other.

Roll up a magazine as tight as you can, but leave enough of a hole in the middle that you could slip a small rope into the inside. hold it upright and make the edges even by placing the bottom on a table, and pushing down on the top. once it is even tape the sides on the top and bottom to get it to hold its position.

Repeat.

These are great! a way to make a mini pear is to cut 1 magazine in half then use that as your handles and they are more pocketable :)

 Once upon a time We studied martial arts,  and ended up making some out of the insulation foam that goes around pipes. LOL not heavy but the kids didn’t hurt each other!

You can make those out of rope alone, and they will be heavier for better hits.
