3.5 kg meels
A few years ago, I made a pair of 5.3 kg meel. I seldom used these clubs. They were too long and too heavy for the kind of exercises I enjoyed doing with meel. I decided to convert them to shorter, lighter meel. I used my Excel spreadsheet to calculate the dimensions of my cut-down meel.
The first club is perfectly symmetrical, and looks and feels like a Persian meel.
The second club looks and feels like an Indian jori. I could not trim it into a meel shape, because the weight would become unacceptably low. Even though the two clubs were cut from the same piece of wood, one club has more heartwood, making it denser, while the other club has more sap wood, making it lighter.

I made a few videos using these meel.
