Then attach a match box lid to the thin box with adhesive. Put lots of plasticine inside . Punch holes in the top of the box and insert a short stick.

Glue the short stick through the ends of the two long sticks. Make sure the lid of the match box slides easily through the poles.

Make a big hole in the center, through the sliding lid of the matchbox . Make a hole on each side and tie one end of the rope on each side of the lid with the holes.

Then put a pencil through the thin box approximately in half. Slide the matchbox lid to the end of the clubs. Wind a rope around the short stick and hold the loose end to the pencil with tape.

Roll the pencil to slide the lid of the matchbox. Wind the second string at the ends of the stick through the match box lid and over the shorter stick. With tape hold the end of the string to the pencil.
