Any tutorials for Quidditch broom?

[jadedskies]

Hi!

I used the search feature and didnt find anything about this; does any one have any idea if there is a tutorial or anything about making a Quidditch style broom?

I know there was an interest a while back for allready made ones, but I had no cash flow. Any help would be greatly appreciated muchly!

there are a couple sites that seel (what they call) quidditch brooms
http://www.broommagic.com/shopexd.asp?id=175
but they look like old style long bristle brooms, if you wanted a special shaft you could get a long thick piece of hard wood, trace out your design, cut it with an jig saw, sand it smooth and seal it, there are sites that sell the bristles, i think hobby lobby does also... id be interested in seeing you put one together...
and heres an online tutorial to make actual brooms!
