Intergrations


NF Bonesaw
15” Overall Length
9.25” x 7.5” Blade (1/4” teeth)
4” Handle


This is the second integration I did, after a prototype NF Sword boffer. This particular design worked a bit better then the sword because of the size of the weapon barrel. The sword prototype had the nite finder set up high in the blade but it required an excessive amount of foam to cover, not to mention it unbalanced the sword. This was again done for a larp for a friend who's character is a medic. The handle is the nf handle cit to strips and rewrapped for a cleaner grip and the blade is completely open cell foam. The barrel is pvc attached with cement and the nf itself has been gutted. Not a primary weapon but as a secondary, it can stand up to many other boffers, as well as the advantage of having the blaster inside. Overall very successful and reliable, not to mention safe as all pvc has been covered with foam.


Bearded Axe Blowpipe Hybrid
25.25" haft
6.75"x6" blade

The second blowpipe integration I did, it's a very simple yet successful weapon. Using a two foot length of pvc, I wrapped it in pipe foam, making sure it extended above and below the ends of pvc. The bottom was designed as a makeshift bushing, using foam instead of a pvc piece. This makes the blowpipe an easier weapon to use and increases the range a bit. The axe head is open cell wrapped in duct tape and the handle is done in e-tape. Again a very successful design, the only thing that needs adjustment is the bottom bushing and the boffer will work very well.
