Volume 1 / Part 7 — Weighting Indian Clubs

Reading edition

Illustration from The Boy Mechanic, Volume 1: 700 Things for Boys to Do

An ordinary Indian club can be fixed so that different weights may be had without changing clubs. Each club is bored to receive lead washers which are held in place by a spiral spring. A bolt is run through from the handle end and fastened with a round nut. The lead washers and spring slip over the bolt as shown in the illustration. Changing the number of washers changes the weight of the club.
