you will never make one that will stand the test of time.  save up some bucks and go buy one.  even the cheapest will be far superior to what you could manufacture.  no offence intended.

If your just going to be playing for fun you got a good stick and your moneys worth. If you were to get real compeitive you might want to buy somthing like STK or a more porfisonal brand.

I live in Beijing and there's a great hockey community here, so I'm sure there must be something there. Try contacting http://www.whitetigers.or.kr/ or http://www.glaciershockey.com/ Good luck.

The Warrior Dolomite Jr. Hockey stick is a fused one piece Carbon fiber composite stick. Which means the shaft and blade are fused together. Being a hockey player I can tell you this is the way to go. The one piece stick offers a better feel and a lower kick point which allows the shooter a quicker release and harder shot. It comes in what is called a grip which is a textured coating on the shaft for better control. From what I can see a great junior stick.

I've seen a pretty decent replica made of rolled poster board (for the bottom) with an aluminum bowl taped to the top.  Wrap the whole thing with aluminum foil, and ta da, a replica Stanley Cup.

Get wooden matchsticks and cut the heads off of them.  Then it is a simple means of making the design and building it.\n\nOr you can order this kit.

I think CBC released a DVD box set (that also aired) called "Hockey: a People's History." I also have formal study in hockey history and a lot of their stuff are very accurate. I think you gotta buy it online though; I haven't seen any stores carry it.

Lid, mouth guard, shoulder pads, leggings/pants, hip pads, breezers, elbow pads, knee pads, cup, socks, shin pads, skates, gloves, stick, sweater/jersey, lots of tape, and a 12-pack.\n\nI would consider all of those to be major, however, all that is required is a stick, puck, ice, and 4 extra boots to make 2 goals.

Go to a sports store that sells skates & sticks.  Try on a pair of skates that are similar to yours.  (Make sure the height of the blades is the same as yours)\n\nhold a hockey stick so that you are in a comfortable position to receive a pass, and the bottom of the blade of the stick is completely touching the ground.  \n\nNow, mark where your top hand is, that is the length of THAT particular stick that you need.\n\nDO NOT BELIEVE ANYONE WHO SAYS TO CUT A STICK AT YOUR NOSE OR CHIN!!\n\nEvery stick uses a different "lie".  This is the angle that the blade comes off the stick.  The greater the angle, the longer your stick might need to be.\n\nAs for the type of stick, since you are a beginer, I would recomend a LOW COST, composite stick with replaceable blades.  These shafts were designed for hockey.  A wood shaft was not, it was cut from a tree.  You wil have a better shot with it and it is cheaper in the long run because you only have to replace the blade, not the whole stick.\n\nI recomend replacing the blade when the bottom begins to crack, don't wait for it to brake.\n\nGood luck

My dad made a 16' cedar strip canoe.  \n\nIt is beautiful, light, and quiet on the water.  I know there are books available at Barnes and Noble or Borders, but I know he just created the form and learned how to fiberglass finish the outside.  \n\nGood luck!
