This is a tutorial on how to create a basic,cost effective and safe one handed foam sword for LARP or Live Action Battle Games. The tutorial uses basic material such as pvc pipe that are easy to get and great for a first time weapon builders. Most of the footage is unrehearsed improvisation done in one take so I apologize in advance if the sentence structure seem rather awkward.
Materials used are:
Ozark Camp Pad (from Walmart)
half inch sch 40 PVC pipe
DAP Contact Cement (Red Can)
Duct Tape
Double Sided Carpet Tape
Nylon Rope
Athletic cloth tape
