OK I bought it. Why?<br>
<br>
( Cause I'm insane)<br>
Cause it's $38 and if doctor Frankenstein and I cant fix it we can always cut down to the bowl and start over, That alone is worth $38.but I think you guys get a little too nay sayie ( is that a word ) I think it'll work.<br>
<br>
We are also in the midst of Frankensteining my 6 year old Trooper Helmet into something usable.<br>
<br>
Why? , Because people say it cant be done.<br>
<br>
NEVER doubt the power of a migwelder and bench grinders and torches and MUHAHAHAHAHAHA ....Oh, sorry, lost my head there<br>
<br>
Basically, When it comes to this Hobby, My bud Randi is Dr Frankenstein, And I'm his assistant Igor , That's pronounced EyeGor<br>
<br>
I bring him mangeled junk, scrap sheet metal, raw barstock and cheap unusable things like Trooper helmets and Gladius on Matt Amts Do not use list. We go down into the <strong>La-Bore-A-Tory</strong> , crank up all of the power tools and start making things arc and spark.<br>
<br>
He creates mad Genius Ideas and I fetch things ( Yeth master, Yetthhh master) Heck I even have a Black Hood<br>
<br>
After all of the Arcing and Sparking and Grinding is done<br>
We end up with some pretty cool stuff!<br>
<br>
To Date,<br>
Over a dozen Pilum and a couple of Auxillary Spears.<br>
1/2 a dozen Scutum, and another 1/2 dozen Clipeus with hand dished Bosses.<br>
<br>
He did a Tuba and a Cornu by Basically Hacking up old instruments and adding in stretch tubing<br>
<br>
4 different "Garbage" gladius' with scabbards.<br>
Grind down the Ricasso's and the made in India Stamps.<br>
New Wooden Furniture<br>
New Grips<br>
Stripped all of the Black leather off and replaced with Green, Reddish/Bronze, and Brown Leather.<br>
<br>
<br>
So we're not exactly rookies at diggin up "dead bodies" and animating them.<br>
<br>
We will be taking pictures of the whole process. If it works I'll post them, If not I'll post them too with a "what went wrong" report.<br>
