ok, ok.... so they're RUBBER BAND guns and HARDWOOD swords and daggers, but i thought you'd like to see them anyways.

all hardwoods, ebony for most of the small blades, (note 'keyring' dagger) very sharp tips. i used oak, maple, rosewood, ebony, walnut, hickory and others for the swords and daggers. all leatherwork by me too, of course.
i sold many like these at renfaires while doing my magic box bit dressed in oldtyme magician garb the wife made me.... (i invented 2 different boxes i can open, but no-one else can. sold 5 minutes for a buck to try to open them. no-one ever did......lol)
sure sold a lot of rubber band guns though.....
oh, and any of these can be for sale too..... send me a PM!
*enjoy!*

Wow, those are good !!
You have a talent with wood

 

[DangerMouse]

thanks! i do so love to work in wood.....
at some shows, they don't allow real steel any more, so these went pretty well.

[gma2rjc]

Those are beautiful. Very nice work.

 

[gregdonovan]

[DangerMouse]

nope, only in Mi. the wife and kids dragged me along as the pack mule.

Ok so between these and the drywall lift why do I think there could be a catapult or a Trojan Horse coming soon to a renfest near you:laughing:

Nice work DM:thumbsup: wish I had the time, but her comes my halter now:whistling2:.

 

[Chemist1961]

Freudian slip did actually I say her comes my halter?:wink:
Everyday I wake up feeling like a racehorse and finish the day thinking I 'm still working like a packhorse

 

[shumakerscott]

[Scuba_Dave]

And maybe a new profile pic is in order?? :thumbup::sorcerer:

 

[DangerMouse]

I'd like to see some pics of those too

done, though i doubt anyone can figure them out just by looking.
the round one has a marble inside, simply get it out.....

the other i open and close right in front of you over and over, but when i hand it to you, it will never open....

You didn't put any rules on the game.

DM

to protect the innocent & be truthful in actual contents of said thread

 

[DangerMouse]

a gun fires a projectile, a rubber band is a projectile.
pretty dumb to change the title.... it's a joke, yeah, but still true, and no doubt got the thread a few more views, as i hoped.
now i have to edit the first post so i don't come off as a lunatic.... yeah, yeah... too late for that, i know....
change it back! there's nothing wrong with it!!!!

DM

 

[DangerMouse]

so... NO-one's even SLIGHTLY curious as to how i designed these magic tricks????
boy, if you saw them in action.......

DM

 

[Scuba_Dave]

Magnets

 

[DangerMouse]

that's usually everyone's first guess too... but i've had guys bring magnets and try, and of course, it doesn't open....
i think it's about that time they figure out that wood and glass marbles aren't magnetic.... heh heh
remember, i AM a musician, and i dabble in electronics.....

DM

 

[Scuba_Dave]

Do they have to be intact after I open them? :laughing:
