The Story of Ip Man’s Wooden Dummy
http://chinesemartialstudies.com/201...-wooden-dummy/

--------------------------------------------------------Koo Sang replicated Fung Shek's dummy exactly.
I have a Koo Sang dummy which I got from Fong Sifu when I was opening the first wing chun school in New Mexico (Las Cruces) in1979-1980.

My friend Alan Lamb (originally from UK now on the US) at one time was a student of Koo Sang and he and other students helped Koo Sang make the dummies

I have not read the other articles yet. Thanks wc1277 for the links.
