Building a Dagorhir AxeThis should work for both PVC and fiberglass cores. The illustrations show PVC core.Special thanks to Scion d'Ur of the Dagorhir Realm Angaron in Pittsburg for this incredible contribution in developing these pages, instructions, and splendid graphics.

Padding:*Note about contact cement: Apply to surfaces to join lightly and allow cement to dry to a "tacky" texture before joining surfaces.

Cover:I can't think of any easy outs for this one. You have to pin, cut out and sew axe covers. It is tricky and expect some of your stitching to show. Remember to secure the cover to the shaft of the axe with duct tape. Cover the shaft with a brown cloth sewn up like a tube, turned inside out and pulled on from the bottom of the axe, up into place. Now, go chop down the greatest tree in the forest with it, or would you rather use a herring?Any comments or questions? Please email me. I would appreciate any input. - Scion d'Ur |
