Method of displaying swords
Hi all
I recently picked up a few swords, I like how they look and decided they would look well on the wall,Neither however had a scabbard so I decided to fashion a means of displaying Swords in question are a khanda and a tulwar, not same shape of style but look well together Method is quiet simple and the picture should explain the process Basically I got some 4 inch copper tubing, friendly plumber was doing some work in my workplace and I scrounged some off him Cut a inch and a half section, with a jig saw and then used a power sander to make cut parallel Then put swords in x shape I wanted and marked where they would go Then I files out the grooves and all came together reasonably nice once I rounded the edges with some sand paper blocks Overall took around one hour and I am quiet happy with the job My wife is in Berlin for the week so that probably be the full extent of their duration on the sitting room wall If anyone has another method they would like to share I would appreciate it |
