Thanks guys. If anyone's interested, Lucille is 10 minute/$15 build. I bought a $5 Louisville slugger minibat (like they give out at games) wrapped it in model scale barbed wire and drilled out the center for the hanger bolt and screwed the ferrule down. Literally 10 minutes or so. Much fun.
. . and damn straight on Taps as in the bugle . . . brutal.
