Making Cheap LARP Weapons PART 1: What do you need?

[@nevernether3368]

My family has been making larp weapons for personal use for years. We used bamboo we grew ourselves as a core and stuffed them into pool noodles and completely wrapped it in duct tape.

This series is one of the best I've ever seen in terms of quality and content, and it has helped me a lot. Your video in Dutch has also helped me a lot, because we are currently using urecoat as sealant but it is a serious pain in the bollocks. Shame the videos stopped :(

[@URMyTorment]

Great video, i appreciate playful self-deprecation. Jolly good, and great information!

[@vojtechnovak8259]

You sir, need to make more videos, cannot find as good content anywhere! it actually got me to craft weapons also. Now I got whole collection of Skyrim swords!

[@KalGoltur]

I needed this 4 years ago and this would probably have saved some 3 months trying to figure out how to make a larp weapon. But I hope the series will help somebody else and I still got some new tips that probably will help me in the future!

Pro tip: you can watch series on Flixzone. Been using it for watching loads of movies recently.

[@brantleyjoaquin3238]

@Cullen Gus yea, been watching on flixzone} for years myself =)

[@theweaponscollectiveedge863]

You have very good advice on making larp weapons. I will have to try some of your ideas.

[@TheDudeWithDaCowbell]

I would note that when PVC breaks I believe it can also become sharp, like you mentioned with certain metals

[@stasianatanasov6294]

in my experience its the fiberglass swords that snap and the PVC ones are the ones that go trough a lot of abuse without any issues...

[@MountainRadioShow]

This is high quality content you published. Even if I wouldn't be interested in larp weapon building, it was just amusing watching you. Aaand I really want to build CHEAP stuff hahah :D thank you a lot for this video

[@johnsullivan6560]

Thank you. That was very helpful.

[@cloviepounders6703]

What a great intro to weapon creation.

[@estebanpa7923]

Thanks for share

[@tgcid2018]

hot glue can make for great composite material; just with some hot glue and popsicle sticks I've made some things that are absurdly sturdy, like I make things as toys for my sister's kids but I don't want to give them some of these things out of fear they'll hospitalize each other trying to break it, which they will try to do.

[@JiffyPopLuv]

Thank you thank you thank you. Really informative and entertaining.

[@douwewielstra4047]

Hoi Martijn. Leuke en duidelijke videos. Ik ga binnenkort met mijn neefjes naar het Imaginarium festival en dan hebben we natuurlijk wapens nodig. Bedankt voor de tips.

[@Pymmothra]

Ren faire is coming back to my area this year and this is perfect for preparation!!!

[@assierravenking1861]

I would say PVC tubes are recomended for stuff like axes, mace's or even spears, i usually do It like that...

[@marachime]

WOOOO!

[@lastrare2276]

Are graphite tubes the same as carbon fiber tubes?

[@c-mandawg]

This is very good advice. Whoever did your video editing did you a diservice though - the text edits correcting or commenting takes away from the general authenticness of your video in a way. Don't sweat the small stuff, quirkiness is good

[@shamelmasha1]

Let's gooooooo

[@Rapidworldofwarcraft]

Thank you

[@petergenovas4505]

What about a bamboo chute?

[@batboy944]

Didn’t he say no wood? But I mean, could make a good core.
