My latest project

Thanks for the positive support guys...it's moving this project along. They are still both 8.5" in length and fit my 7.25" wrists and 12" forearms perfectly while I'm wearing wool insulated leather gloves and jumpsuit sleeves.
A few more progress pics.(y)

Thanks guys, I appreciate the feedback. Let me know of any suggestions.
I'll notch out the recessed areas for the exposed hinge once I receive some very accurate hinge that's coming all the way from Italy.
I'll also start fabricating the right gauntlet top hose attachment and hose fittings, and flamethrower nozzles.
I edited the thread with some better pics.(y)

thanks
 
.....I receive some very accurate hinge that's coming all the way from Italy.
And who sent to you the hinge??:lol:lol:

I'm proud to have helped you,because you did a really nice job!!!!!:cheers
Now you are the really "Popeye the propmaker man,tuuu,tuuu!!!!":lol:
 
Wow! Great stuff C! (y)
What? An accurate hinge? I didnt even know there was such a thing. :confused
I thought all hinges were created equal :)
 
Dang Lorenzo, you weren't kidding. Top notch work. I would never have expected someone of your IQ to be able to craft anything so beautiful.

If saying "I think is too big" and "Is too big for me" over and over again is called helping, then yeah you did help me...temendously! :lol:lol:


Ok you win, how much for them :lol:

I'll have to figure out the costs of materials, hardware, and time it takes to put together a kit and price shipping expenses before I can come up with an estimated price. After I put together a couple of kits for friends, then I'll have a better idea. However, I've told a few people that wanted a ballpark figure that I'm estimating somewhere between $200-$300 for a kit that contains everything needed for an "almost complete" assembly (i.e. shells, flamethrower, whipcord, hose fittings, nozzles, double hinges, switches, buttons, LED, & hoses)...all except for the missile and aluminum parts which I'd ask my "assistant" from Italy to provide.:lol: I don't have a missile I can cast and I don't want to try and make one when Dark-Side has already created what I think is the most accurate Jango missile available.(y)

Oh, and if I can produce them cold casted, then that'd be an option as well.(y)

I always knew you lived an alternative lifestyle. Its good to know that you finally have a set of gauntlets made to fit those Popeye proportioned arms of yours.
