INPUT ARTICLE: Article: In Sepak Takraw, you can't touch the ball with your hands or arms. That means you have to use your feet, legs, and knees to control the ball. Although it takes a bit of agility and athleticism, there are some basic moves you can learn. The inside kick is probably the most important skill to learn because it's the one you'll use the most. This is used to control the ball. You can also use this kick for good spikes. For this kick, stand with feet shoulder width apart with your support leg bent at the knee. Hit the ball with the inside of your dominant foot. Practice working with both feet to get more agility and flexibility in your kicks. When the ball comes towards you, lift the inside of your foot to connect with the ball. To practice this kick, dribble the ball by kicking it up with the inside of your foot. Use a different foot each time the ball comes down. A variation of this kick uses the outside of the foot. When the ball comes at you and you can't get into position to use the inside of your foot, use the outside of it instead. The toe kick is used to save the ball, not control it. Extend your leg. Let the ball bounce on your toe or raise your leg if the ball is higher. This should be executed slowly and without power. This is used when receiving the ball. When the ball comes to you from a low angle, bounce the ball off the top of your foot. The header is another pivotal skill for the game. This "kick" uses the head, preferably your forehead at your hair. This is used when the ball comes at you above the waist. You will probably have to bend down to get underneath the ball. Practice getting used to the feeling of the ball against your head because it can hurt. This is used in both serving and striking. This kick is used when receiving the ball. The knee/thigh kick deflects the ball when it's coming towards you between your waist and knees. By hitting the ball with your thigh or knee, you reposition the ball so you can use an inside kick. It is also used when the ball gets too close to your body. A knee and thigh kick is like a march step with a high knee. Using your thigh instead of your knee gives you better control. This is usually used with players who receive a serve. This kick should be be practiced with the inside kick. Striking or spiking the ball sends it over the net. There are different ways to achieve this. Strike with the bottom of your foot. After bouncing the ball into the air, kick your leg up into the air to about head height. Then strike the ball with the bottom of your foot. Use the inner foot to strike the ball. After bouncing the ball high enough in the air, round your leg about shoulder height and hit the ball with the inside of your foot. Use the top of your foot to perform a back kick if you are in a position where you can't face the net. Kick your leg about shoulder height, making sure the top of your foot connects with the ball. For more power, do a combined kick. Start by kicking up the knee on your non-striking foot, then when that foot hits the ground, use that power to kick off the ground for a harder, faster strike. Use your head to strike by hitting the ball with your head. Make sure to lean forward to send the ball over the net instead of into the air. You can use any body part except the arms and hands when playing sepak takraw. You can use the chest and shoulders to bounce the ball off when trying to get it into proper play position. Try not to receive serves or strikes with the chest and shoulders.

SUMMARY: Know the basic skills. Learn the inside kick. Learn the toe kick. Use the header. Use the knee/thigh kick. Learn to strike. Use the chest and shoulders.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Now you'll need to cover the front of your hamster cage with a clear surface. Lay the plexiglass on a flat surface and draw a small dot in each corner that sits 1 inch (2.5cm) from the side of the glass. Then, take a 0.25in (0.64cm) drill bit and drill into the black holes. Don't try to hammer holes into the plexiglass by hand. Use a power drill. Put the wood on the edges of the plexiglass in the shape of a door frame. Attach a Phillips head drill bit to your drill and press a wood screw into the wooden planks through the holes you drilled in the plexiglass. Then, drill the screws in place until the head is completely flush with the glass. To add a reference point, draw a black mark on the corners of the wooden planks that line up with the black marks on the plexiglass itself. This way, you'll be able to see your hamster at all times while still keeping it in its home. Attach wooden planks to a sheet of plexiglass for all 4 sides of the hamster cage. Drill holes into each corner of the plexiglass sheets and then screw the planks and plexiglass together. Having plexiglass on all 4 sides of the hamster cage allows you to attach hinges to one side of the plexiglass and make a door for easy access into your hamster's home. Place these door hinges on the wooden planks to the left of the hamster cage. Put 1 hinge about 5 inches (13cm) from the top of the wooden plank and 1 hinge about 5 inches (13cm) from the bottom of the wooden plank. Drill the hinges into the wooden plank using a power drill. When you've drilled the hinges into the plank, slide the hinge pins in place. Test the hinges by opening and closing the door gently. Another way to cover your new hamster cage is to put it inside a big glass tank. If you have an old fish tank lying around, use this. Make sure the tank is big enough to fit the hamster cage with 5 inches (13cm) of room to spare. Be careful whenever you go to remove the hamster cage from the tank. You need to know where your hamster is at all times to make sure it's not in harm's way.

SUMMARY:
Drill holes into plexiglass to attach a wooden door frame to it. Set the plexiglass on top of 4 wooden planks. Make a plexiglass window for each side of the hamster cage. Install 2 door hinges to make a big door for the hamster cage. Place your doll house in a glass tank if you don't want to make a plexiglass door.
