How much are you looking to spend?

These are the best free standing dummies I've seen:

I have one of these which are based on measurements from Koo Sang/WSL and made by Buick Yip. WC Archive sells portable corner stands as well.

Hope this helps.

sorry i think ive got it wrong then. What i meant by free standing are the dummies which do not have a frame and also are not attached to a wall. My house is small and i think dummies with frame take up too much space. I need what i think is called a free standing dummy ie no frame and you do not attach to the wall.
Thanks!

I bought mine here and I love it:

I just popped 150lbs of sand in a duffle bag and it does the job nicely for my apartment.

(Crappy phone picture)

EDIT: My kwoon has one of the immortal free standing dummies; and I can honestly say I'm really not too fond of it. Thats just my opinion though.

Those dummy arms in your mobile pic look like they are in line? is one not lower than the other?
nice cat, nice dog

I requested my dummy arms to be even- you can have them uneven if you'd like. You really have allot of control on your dummies construction. Jim, the guy at Warrior Martial Arts Supply, is a top notch guy. I'd give him a call.

Thanks, lol, the animals were going crazy and stopped right as I took the photo :)

I always wondered how it would work out if I bought the arms and leg, and just built the rest myself out of some cheaper material. Any thoughts?
