Posted: Just received my order for 100 glowsticks from ebay today. They were only £7 so I cant complain.
They are quite long (cant be bothered to fetch a ruler) I dunno maybe 17". And very thin (about half the width of a small fingernail).
I just went out and spun with them for the first time and they wernt awfully bright but I was only using 1 in each end of the staff. I was hoping that grouping 3 together would produce better results.
Only problem is that I cant think of a good way of attaching them to the staff, for the last half hour I had them selo taped in. Not very practical really, anyone know of a system where you can just slot the glowsticks into the staff and then secure them?
I was thinking of sticking 3 glowsticks together and then slotting them into the staff, but I still cant think of a way of stopping them coming out. Selotape worked well but it didnt look very professional.
My staff is a 4ft long chrome pole, which is hollow in the centre and 3/4 of an inch thick.

Posted: How professional?
Well, if you are spinning on your own...then who gives a rats arse what it looks like?
And if you are doing a performance, you must spin it really fast (with less control ) so no one can see the tape.
THe advantage of selotape is that it is clear, and fairly cheap to buy. If you put teh tape on neatly, then I cant see why it would look unprofessional.

Posted: i really want a perspex devil stick with a hole drilled in the end so i can slot glow sticks in and then push some sort of rubber end cap over the top. the glow sticks would illuminate the whole of the perspex i think, and look quite groovy. However, it might be a bit weak as a stick to use frequently, so maybe just perspex ends with a metal or wooden center section? Does anyone know if this is even possible with perspex?
Does this site actually exist? Or am i talking to all my other personalities?
