FAQ
Q: How much glue should i use do i fill the whole tube
A: No only put enough glue in the ends of the tubes to prevent the chain moveing around this should be about the first 1/2 inch to inch of the tube.

Q: your chain lenght is to long/short person X said they should be (insert random mesurment).
A: i have versions of this nunchaku with a huge range of chain lengths, this lenght is by far the best of all of them for what i want to do. If you are unhappy with the chain length in the video change it but it please don't tell me about im not intrested.

Q:the handles are too long person X said they should be (random number) long
A: person X has never spent a significant amount of time useing fire nunchucks. If you feel strongly enough, feel free to make them shorter but expect to get badly burnt.

Is there a reason you don't use machined nunchaku chain assemblies with ball berrings? I've enjoyed using them in all my chucks and am starting to look into fire dancing.

@christophercraig81 reliability mainly out of the 20 or so sets of machined ball berring sets i've had 70% of them have failed horribly (broke apart mid chuck) within a year. i use these for shows and often have a crowd of people around me so i designed these to make sure there was no possibility of them breaking and injuring someone other than me :)

Would u Sell me a pair?

[kenmasters8]

great video. well demonstrated and walk through. i have never used fire chucks and to buy them they are way over priced. this will be great to test it out to see if my skills can translate.

[dirtedrt]

I dont know why, but i have no sound to your vid. What kind of pipe did you use?? It looks like stainless steel?? And what is it that your running through the chain?? Just steal dowel??

[christophercraig81]

@RobNunchucks Damn. I haven't had that kind of failure rate, but I'm also not using 16" chucks yet. Great instructional vid man; you got me looking into 16" chucks to work on contact tricks.
