Hi there,

I want to ask your knowledge about that kendama, that I feel so beautiful... I bought one a few weeks ago, and it should arrive in France in a few days.
I have seen it for the first time in a KendAlex's edit, but anywhere else.
Why? Will I become the second guy to have an Acrylic tama?
Is it that bad?

when you say acrylic do you mean Plexiglas? transparent ball?

Acrylic is right. David originally produced just a few as trophies, but now has them for sale on his site.

So I took one to David a few weeks ago!  ;D I already known that website, but I just don't understand why, on YouTube for example, only Alex Ruisch has make an edit. Because that kendama is just UNBELIEVABLE!

(Really sorry for mistakes, I feel previous lines sooo bad.)

the trophy models were all hand made - and you can see that in the quality of the drilling but not in the winner's smile.
To get the anna (hole) machining done with a really nice finish has proven very expensive so one more attempt with a good friend in the UK who makes formula 1 parts.... and if that does not work out then it is time to get my own low-speed lathe for the job.
Just a few days for mssr. laposte on his little yellow moped to come knocking on your door......

Just receive the mine, and very happy for that ball. Sound like no one! A little bit scared to play with on a solid ground, but I will get the habit to play with on grass.
Thanks David! :)
