After some sparring the other night with Taco, Alacian, Caretaker and Kitty it was brought to my attention my handle is.. rediculously small. Like maybe a nickel around, and I wanted to add some weight/shape/size to it (cause its not quite up to weight standards anyway I don't think) but I am between designs.

Templar showed me a pencil design where a weapon he was using had two pencils, one on each side of the handle going with the blade, Caretaker also told me of this method, but I also like the coins on the handle style which basically adds weight and shape to it. I thought about adding coins on one side of the handle, and two pencils on the other (the pencils would go WITH the blade) to create a weighted + oval handle, but I don't know.

I'd like to get it done before Fool's Raid, any suggestions/tutorials you guys know?

Metal rods. Then you have the weight of metal and the shape of pencils.

For my Axe, I used about an 8 inch Nail. Yes they have nails up to a foot long for staking things into the ground. Anyhow, I used one, because that's all I found lying around in the shed. You could use two.

Its 9am, I must be off on errand shopping too. Then some fixin' if possible at home, then the park tonight. See ya.

My dad has some long nails, maybe that will work. We'll see how tonight goes and I might do it. Very Happy Thanks Konradr. See you after work!
