Me:"Don't you ever wish that you could have a really looong plunger!?"
You: "....No"
Me: "Don't you ever wish that you could have a TWO- SIDED plunger!?"
You: ".....Not really"
Me: "Well here's your chance! Make your own plunger staff for little or no money at all!!"
You: "......why are you in my house?"
Me: "I'll show you how! Just follow these easy steps and you'll be done in no time!"

Just unscrew the handles from the heads.
Keep the rubber heads,
you don't need the handles, so use them for something else.

Drill the Holes

 Take the 3/32 drill bit and drill a hole into each end of the broomstick/dowel and the center of both plunger heads.

Screw the Screws

 If you intend to use this as a bo staff or a contact staff, like me, this step adds grip.

Take the tennis grip and wrap it around the center of the staff and secure it with electrical tape.
