I modeled it in 3d and somewhere between .75 and .9 looks about right, good eye. It looks like tk1055 is working on it too so there goes my my monopoly :darnkids haha. hopefully i can beet him to market.
Plus a blacksmith isn't gonna do it for very cheap. 7 feet of steel, yikes that would be spendy.
Plus doing it yourself is a lot more fun. I don't know if you've done something like this before, if you have any questions I would be glad to help if I can. I'm really looking forward to seeing this.
Oh no, Mine will be for personal use, No way would I ask him to do a run of them...as he does a lot for the Civil War Reenactment community. However if he is interested in doing commissions on them I will let folks know.
All god stuff Wreckhur!
I was thinking just that when it came to doing the bent tip halves. I've got access to a lathe and do plan on making use of it just like you suggested.
with any luck i'll have a prototype of the top done by next week. after i've got that down the rest will be quite easy.
