Foam Weapon Smithing
Learn the basics of foam weapon smithing in this 2 hour workshop hosted by the Lawton family. The focus will be on the process of sword construction, using the duct tape (boffer) method. Templates will be provided. Students or their parent should be competent using an exacto knife or similar sharp, cutting instrument. Contact cement, or other adhesive, will also be used. The image is of some of the items the Lawton boys have constructed. Not all are the duct tape method. ALL SUPPLIES ARE PROVIDED.
