Hey all -

Just wondering if anyone knows some good places to buy wooden dummies in Australia?

(or particularly Melbourne)

I have not looked at the one that is available through Tan's, does anyone know if they are any good?

I have heard there is a good place in Tasmania?

Thanks for any help in advance.

Yeah - I know about that -

I have actually heard that those dummies aren't very good anymore.

But thank you never the less.

How about trying Great Lion.
there web site is http://www.woodendummy.net/intro.html

Ive personaly not bought from them,but Ive heared good things.
and there web looks great!
good luck!

"O" buy the way have you thought about makeing your own? it ready isnt that hard,perhaps you could look into it? plus it would save on those shiping charges, I bet THAT is going to be pricey.

Thanks!

Will check that out.

As per building my own - don't have the time!

I work 5 days a week, and train 5 days a week (at least) - doesn't leave much time for the ol' wood sculpting :mad:

I know a guy who makes them, there a little different than the solid round 'log' type but they feel just as good and they are a hell of a lot cheaper than say TANS product about AU$600.

The guys name is Joe, nice bloke.

His web site is:

Didn't Mrs Murphy say:

Never eat at a cafe named "Mom's"

Or get tamales from "Jose"

or get a dummy from a man named "Joe"?
