    Darth Steven's aluminum gauntlet missle project

    Hi there,

    I had attached some pictures of my Rocket Gauntlet Unfinished, yet :

    - The holes is not present on the tips
    - The body is not machined

    This weekends I'll finish the pieces and I'll send
    to anodized.... sure !!
    Also I'm working on the four steel darts for the right gaunlet.

    I hope that my work like you...

    Nice work, and welcome to TDH.

    Only thing I can see (besides what you've mentioned) is that at the back end of the rocket, there should be one more cylinder that comes out a little bit.

    If no one can post a pic before I get home, I can put one up!

    This is an understatement if I ever heard one! Darth Steven, DL44 has certainly struck a chord of absolute truth here, and if offering METAL gauntlet rockets to the board is going to be one of your trademarks, then I say you are instantly going to become just about everyone's best friend, including mine!
    The thing of it is, every time this particular project has been initiated in the past, by others, it has always seemed to have faded away before it even begun In other words, if you put your best into this project, you may very well become a legend here, NEVER to be forgotten! How's that for a welcome?

    WElcome to TDH. I don't want to be the sour note here, but I just noticed something...THE ROCKET IS INDEED AWESOME, but there's something missing in the body of the rocket: the "ribs" around the main body. Check that out and congratulations in creating something really good.

    Awesome work

    One suggestion/observation though, the holes you have are ranging from small to large, but the ref. pics of the holes in the gauntlet rocket are all the same size in all three levels.

    Are going to offer these and how much?

    Thank you
    I'm glad that my work interest you.

    If you have more info, email me or visit my personal website ( under update, now. You can try with ..../Lightsabers.htm ) I Just wanted to specify that I'm a costuming and Prop maker only and no seller, but I'll be happy to help you with your Bounty Hunter. So, If you want one of my Gauntlet rocket I'll can give it : usually the machined work is very expensive and I must do more pieces to lower the cost of it.

    My passion for the costuming is very big, and I do observing every details from the items that I want to replica.
    I have many patience:.... my last costume two year of hard work !!

    Looks good except for the holes on the nozzle are different size; read your post about making your rocket "original".... Other than that looks sweet.
    Good job.
