Go to Wal-Mart to the house wares dept. and get a Poly Cutting board that is 1/2" thick. It will cost about $3. Cut it into 2" x 12" pieces, with skil saw, or table saw. You should be able to get about 14-16 pieces. Then take a sharpie and draw grips for your hand on one end, and taper it to a point at the other. Then cut out with jig-saw, and smooth it up with #4 grit sandpaper.You can have 14-16 sticks for less then $5, and about an hour of your time.
