How to Build a Free Standing PVC Dummy

Finally, a guide that tells you how to build a free-standing PVC dummy (AND how to weigh it down) at an affordable price.

Most wooden dummies cost $1000, and they also come on big, bulky frames that won't fit in your apartment/house. Then you look for dummies that are built WITHOUT the frame, but guess what? They cost just as much!

You search for guides on how to build it, but it seems like every guide out there tells you how to build them only with those gigantic frames. There are none that show you how to build one that can stand on its own.

Until now.

In this book, Steve Grogan provides you with everything you need to make your own dummy:

*A list of supplies
*Ideas on how to save money on the above
*Easy-to-follow instructions
*Tips on how to weigh it down, and...
*Contact information if you have any questions

Grab this guide, and you will have a free-standing wooden dummy in your house in no time!

Introduction

When I started looking into building my own wooden dummy, I searched the internet far and wide to find a book or website that would show me how to do it. I needed a cost-efficient way because I didn’t have $1,000 dollars to shell out for one that was professionally made.

To their credit, every resource I found did indeed provide good ways to save on the cost of materials, but there was one drawback to them: they didn’t show you how to build a dummy WITHOUT a massive frame on which to mount it.

However, this design presented a different problem: it was too bulky for my living situation. What about those of us who live in closets for apartments? There are freestanding dummy options from the companies who sell dummies, but again, that makes you run right back into the issue of cost.

That is why I set about writing this book. After some trial and error, and with the help of my friend Dennis D’Asaro, I’m now the proud owner of a freestanding wooden dummy that does NOT require a frame and does NOT cost a fortune to make.

In the name of full disclosure, I did wind up going through two pieces of PVC for the body. Even after I thought I’d learned from the mistakes on Version 1, there were still some errors on Version 2. However, you will have the ability to avoid this because I’m going to pass my knowledge on to you, so you can theoretically make yours correct right off the bat.

Before we begin, I would like to dedicate this book to Dennis, who offered his help free of charge. That is an example of the finest in humanity right there, and I can’t say enough good things about him.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email me. Depending on how technical it is, I may have to forward your inquiry to Dennis. That means it might take longer to get a response, but you WILL get one.

Now let’s build your wooden dummy!
