Updated Highlander handles H1 / TV prop

[irishamericanlad]

im using a tool resin, its used for hammers and such... dont get me wrong if you set out to break it, it will. but it will handle the stress of action...

Sheesh, that looks better than the prop itself!

Hey, so how are these going to be functional since plastic and resin can break under stress?

Interesting! So how are you going to put a blade in it? Are you going to make it hollow, and is the hollow going to be any particular shape?

Are you going to offer them painted?

 

[irishamericanlad]

the blades are fitted to each handle, and backfilled with resin adhesive... then the handles are drilled and fitted with plugs and then filled with resin and painted... it will be complete when sent out.

Remember, it's only really unbreakable if you aren't trying hard enough:lol

Seriously though I'm digging the redone H2. Do you have a test cast of the newly retooled H2 with some stain?
