I think casting the bubbler would be a bad idea.

If it was cast hollow it would be very fragile and if you made it solid it would be very hard to cast correctly and keep it accurate.

I disagree. The bubble on the original prop is a casting.
All that needs to be done is line the inside with styrene then cast it solid with a 1" hole down the center.

I highly doubt you'll get 20 people interested in a machined one.

How did they do the slots?

On the real prop the slots are filled from the inside. It's a solid cast.

If anyone is interested, I do have 5 of the Super Max hairdryers and three of the nozzle connectors I'm selling. You can check it out here: http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZthekillingfrostQQhtZ-1

BUMP!

Don't let this die (again!)

I really want to get myself a Vibro axe!
