Making a discus!

Показать описание
I decided to make a custom discus for my son, who is competing in track and field, where discus throwing is one event. A fun project but a bit more work than I first anticipated as you have to meet some specific parameters, like size and weight. I'm very happy with the result and it feels great to throw!

Very different from the usual builds on YouTube! I think it's the first time I have ever considered how a discus is constructed. Thanks 🤓

You are an awesome dad! There are great dads that support their child in track and field, but not many of them can say they can build equipment for their kids to use!

It is so hypnotic watching a master craftsman like yourself create something so elegantly simple.

True artistry, displayed in full.

This is such a cool build! I also love that you take the time to show each sticker as you put them up.

You should do a javelin next! 😂

I wish you and your family a beautiful and happy holiday, and I ask God Almighty to bless you all...
Thanks.

This is my 3 favorite things all in one! Discus, machining, and great YouTube videos. I'm very happy right now

SELL THESE!!!! That’d are actually far to beautiful to watch one get destroyed by my kids. Our 10$ frisbee is just fine. Incredibly precise and design once again! It truly is a thing of beauty.!!!

As a woodturner, I smiled when you chucked up your Sorby gouge. Good show!
