Prototype Wings

Here are some wings I have been designing, currently made of cardboard, string and some misc hardware. I still need to figure out which movement method to use. My ideas are ranging from cheap string and pulley method, simple pnuematics, or if i ever have extra cash to spare a linear actuator.









The wings when finalized will probably be made of either steel (heavy), aluminum (light), or wood with brass accents to steampunk it up a bit.

Everyone has the first blog post, so I might as well get it out of the way.

Here are some of the things I have made, can make, or that I am currently working on. My lack of work space make things a little complicated to start or finish things.

Here is my attempt at the Shishkebab from Fallout 3. As you can see it was not made to be exact. It does have a real gas tank and brake/grip from a motorcycle. The blade isn't from a lawn mower, as they usually have bends and holes in them. I had attempted to sell it on Ebay but had no takers.

Below is mostly Metal Objects cut on the CNC Plasma machine I have access to.







Plasma Sword I made and sold, probably should make more of these.





Some belt buckles, Bottom two from the plasma cutter. I have misplaced the Batman one around the house. The NES (not shown) ones I have sold and not yet replinished.



A quick (somewhat sloppy) prop I made for my Dr. Horrible costume a few Halloweens ago.



The inside of the prop just for show. The tubes glow blue, I couldn't find a spare 9v to power them for the photo.

That's it for now,
