Foam Smithing Supplies

Here is a list of supplies a foam weapons smith would need. These supplies would allow you to safely build a basic Myth Wood boffer weapon. I will have a limited amount of all of these on hand this Sat. If you would like to build your own weapon this is a great place to start.
 
  1. Roll of blue camp mat. (I get them at Wal-Mart)
  2.  Dap contact cement. (Wal-Mart, Menards, Fleet Farm.)
  3.  Gorilla tape, duct tape.
  4.  Cord, clothes line, or any string like material.
  5.  Razor blades/Razor knife to hold the blades
  6.  Tape measure, ruler, yard stick.
  7.  1/2 inch fiberglass core. (Fleet Farm, 5 foot length.)
  8.  Washers that fit your 1/2 inch fiberglass core. (Fleet Farm)
  9.  Yoga block, or some other closed cell foam.
  10.  Hacksaw, for cutting fiberglass post
  11.  Double sided carpet tape. (Menards)
  12.  Black sharpie
  13.  (Optional) Popsicle sticks. (Wal-Mart)
  14.  (Optional) Hockey tape.
  15.  (Optional) sand paper, but I strongly recommend it. (I use 80 grit.)
If on the other hand you do not wish to build your own weapon, but would like to donate supplies to the smiths of the Myth Wood, we have a list for that too.
 
  1. Roll of Blue campmate
  2. Gorilla tape
  3. Fiberglass fence posts ½ inch
  4. Dap
  5. Double sided carpet tape
  6. Black sharpy
I look forward to seeing everyone this Saturday.
