The one on the left is 3lb 5oz. It will be an anniversary present for a lucky wife in Pearl City!
The one on the right is 4lb 8oz. It has a nice balance and weight for some serious pounding!

Lono Logan has commissioned a glass poi pounder.
He has just gotten the piece of land behind him to cultivate taro, so when that is ready to pound, he will have his hands full!
First attempt. This one is over 7lbs which would be quite a workout if you were to use this for more than ten minutes.
This is the 2nd attempt.
It has great balance and I believe it would be a workhorse ku’i ai.
I made two more today and will have to wait until next week to check them out.

Or pounders. These are the latest.
These are a hair under 4 lbs which is a good weight for lengthy pounding. When you get to the 5-6 lb size, you better be pretty strong!
