Pagoda - Wing Chun Wooden Dummy - Dark MahoganyBased
on the famous Koo Sang Wooden Dummy design made famous by the late
Grand Master Yip Man, each Mahogany Wooden Dummy is handcrafted
from the finest premium timber. Crafted in solid heavy Mahogany, all of
the wood we use is carefully selected by hand from sustainable sources
to ensure that every Wooden Dummy we produce meets the highest
standards that both we and our customers would expect from such a
beautiful Jong.
Each
part of the Wooden Dummy is carefully constructed using a combination
of traditional skills combined with the latest technology.
The Body-Manufactured
from solid Mahogany that has been professionally kiln dried, each piece
has been laminated together using an incredibly strong 2-part epoxy
resin glue for maximum strength. The square block is then turned on a
giant lathe to produce a completely cylindrical body ready for the
square mortises to be chiseled out by hand.
The Arms
- Each arm is turned from solid Mahogany and then shaped by hand to
ensure the correct taper. The two upper arms are offset in the
traditional way, which allows the angles to be altered to create a
tight or wide centerline to work through. The middle arm is centered,
and each arm is smoothly tapered to give the authentic look and feel.
The Leg
- Manufactured using a six-piece construction technique to ensure the
maximum strength can be achieved. We use solid pieces of kiln dried
solid Mahogany, which is laminated together using the same 2-part epoxy
resin glue that we employ when making the trunk. Each leg is then
carefully rounded off by hand to create a cylindrical shape that
ensures there are no sharp edges to kick or press the shin on.
The Stand
– The uniquely designed height adjustable wooden dummy stand is
essential in making sure that the dummy is positioned to the correct
height according to each practitioner’s measurements. The design allows
the height to be adjusted by simply moving the bolts up and down in the
pre-drilled holes. The stand is made entirely from the same premium
solid Mahogany as the rest of the Wooden Dummy.
The Finish
- Every part of the Wooden Dummy is sanded to a glass like finish and
then sealed with a high grade clear lacquer to ensure maximum
durability. Our Mahogany dummies are finished with a beautiful rich
walnut stain. Every dummy is produced to a standard that is equal to a
quality piece of furniture and looks just as good in the house as it
does in the gym.
