Scrap metal battle mace you say?

I see multiple ways to make a wicked, awesome battle mace... or two.

Oh a made was the first thing I thought of

Drill a hole through one of the teeth, run a replacement chain link through it, hook it onto the end of a chain, and you've got the makings of a vicious flail.

I've thought about a flail as well, I'd do it with steel cable rather than chain though

Actually, thoes would make a great pop up target for a .22

Meh, I've got a bunch of AR500 targets, so that's about the last thing on my list, sorry

Blades for a flying guillotine...?

Bolas for an at-at?

 

[crazyengineer]

I've been thinking about a way to add a chamfered edge to a point around it

This is currently in progress. The head is is 5x4x8 rosewood block. The shaft is a maple 1.5"x36" dowel. Next is sanding the head and shaft. Then hammering brass strips around the head and pinning in place.

Fancy rip poker, the handle came from a fireplace poker and all I did was thread about halfway down the handle. Then inserted a steel rod and locktite in place.

Looks like a fancy stiletto to me. What kind of steel did you use for the rod? And are you planning on tapering it further?

Wow. Been a while since this thread was updated. Let's see if we can fix that, shall we?

First, something simple.



And now, something not so simple.

 

[Square_peg]

I guess that's where the expression 'under the 8 ball' comes from.

I thought the expression was "behind the 8 ball".

 

[Woodcraft]

I would rather be behind than under in this circumstance.

You wonder what the newspaper headline would read after a thief or mugger got 'tagged' with something like this.
