    thumbnail.jpg right now im waiting on casting stuff i ordered because i dont want to cut up original parts but this is the idea im working on to give ER Prime an axe i plan on shortening it and making the blade part bigger . thinking i may use the big blade edge from siege primes axe spliced to the one in the photo . hoists hand blaster fits perfectly on prime and its a good base to start from.

    That's certainly unique. But I can't eat peanuts.

    So you say you don't want to cut original parts BUT you want to use the blade of SIEGE OP's shield-axe? Am I right there?

    And do you definitely want to DIY this? Because otherwise there are easier and most likely cheaper options:

    lol i seen this kit was going to do one my self the way i want it and what im doing will cost less . i ordered whats called blue stuff and going to be using epoxy

    epoxy $2.97
    blue stuff $6.95

    so for under $9.92 i can make it how i want it and the blue stuff is reusable for other projects and it will not take a full tube of epoxy to make 1 and the kit you showed is $16.99 . ya i agree it may be a bit of work but thats the fun of it

    here is my 1st attempt at making/ copying stuff Heavy/Scratch: - cheap at home castings for about $3.50
