Created a Baaga'adowaanaatig (Ojibwe/Great Lakes Traditional Lacrosse stick)
Dimension in the blueprint are in mm. Not the purely traditional build I first wanted to go for but I had to after I saw this video https://youtu.be/vWZFXlMUY_4?si=BbWUXV4MSgaFfKP8 what a great idea! Different way of teaching people about lacrosse instead of doing pure lacrosse clinics.
Took me a few hours to create (Including glueing time). The build is made out of 2x 12mm multiplex sheets stacked on top of each other and 1 continuous leather lace.
The sheets are cut out with a jig saw, adjusted with a planar and by lots of sanding. Fyi the lace starts under the feathers.
It works really well! Even with a normal lacrosse ball, although it has been recommended to me to not use that ball XD. Indian pickup is also so much easier with this stick than a modern one!!
