Woodall's Custom Workshop is a custom woodworking and light metalworking company
in sunny Central Florida.
Our specialty is making custom Nunchaku,
Escrima sticks, Kubatons, Sectional staffs, cutting stands used during sword cutting (Tameshigiri) and stands used
during board breaking (Tameshiwari). We make our items in Bocote, Brazilian Cherry, Cocobolo, Ebony, Verawood and
many other woods.
Please remember that we make all
the items that you see on this website ourselves. Our backlog of work (the time difference between
the order we are currently working on and your order) is typically two weeks. Toward the end of the year it can become
three weeks. If you have an absolute deadline for any of these:
Birthday Gift Black Belt Testing Gift Gift
for a Sensei who is promoting Gift for a visiting martials arts official Thank you gift for a judging official
please let us know so we can factor in both the time to make your item and the time to ship it to meet your deadline.
We try to reduce this work backlog by keeping the right amount of exotic wood and materials on hand but hand-making
custom martial arts items simply takes time. Thanks for your understanding

at the bottom). Inlay Service - We offer the ability to customize your weapon with wood and brass inlay. Click

Us - This page tells you all about the owners of Woodall's Custom Workshop. Links - Other

and size limitations here also. History of the U-Swivel - This page details the development of the original
1970's era U-Swivel to the creation of a reproduction U-Swivel by Woodall's Custom Workshop for sale right on our
own online store. Site Map - This is a map showing how our web pages are laid out.
Weapon Pages
Nunchaku - We explain the five different shapes available
for your Nunchaku as well as the chain and rope options available. Tameshigiri - These are cutting
stands used for holding tatami for sword cutting practice. Our Tameshigiri stands are modeled after an traditional stand brought
to the U.S. from Japan many years ago. Tameshiwari (board breaking) - These stands are used to
hold boards for breaking by hand or foot. Three Section Staffs - These are closely related to the Nunchaku.
They just have an extra handle in the middle! Kubatons - A weapon that is great for men, woman
and children alike. To the untrained eye it appears to be an innocent key fob and is almost always on hand when it is
needed. Escrima Sticks - Filipino weapons-based martial arts which uses at the main weapon a stick one
inch in diameter and 26 to 28 inches long. Escrima sticks can be used one at a time or more commonly in pairs.
