Viola.Ĭheck out these medieval crafts and activities. We cut two slits on the sides of the “patch” and threaded elastic through them, knotting the ends. If you want to have fewer bruised knuckles (but a greater risk of splintering the sword during battle) you can counter sink the bolt and nut so they are flush with the sword. Add a bead of glue where the handle meets the sword and thread the bolt through the hole, adding the nut to the end. After you sand all the wood to remove splinters, drill a hole the width of your bolt through the three boards, one sword and two handle segments. Cut another two 4-5 inch segments per sword. Sander – you can use regular sandpaper, but we LOVE our electric sander – we can make half a dozen swords in mere minuets with the help of the sander.Ĭut the strips into 1-2 feet lengths (depending on how long your kids want them – longer is more unstable and harder to maneuver in battles). Saw – or you can have the fella at Lowes cut the wood for you. After making several swords we discovered that with repeated banging the handle starts to wobble, glue prevents that.ĭrill – hubs drilled the hole and my son assembled the screw/bolt.
We got a wood screw that was 2 1/4″ long. The plank of trim was about an inch thick, two inches wide and eight feet long. You will need wood trim – thank you Lowes – love the creative ideas for the assistance of your sales staff.
Their mattresses, the bushy corner of the backyard, the playground, we were obsessing in our pretend play!
We went through a pirate “kick” for a few weeks where all my kids wanted to do was be a pirate, everything became a “pirate ship”.
