Pipe-Cutting and Notching Once you have figured out how long you want your hilt to be, you need to cut both of your pipes to that length. I made mine about 29 inches long. You will then need to cut notches or slots in either end of your inner pipe. These notches need to be matching on opposite ends ...

Thanks! I'm still working on the tutorial.....promise it will be up in a couple weeks. And...as you can see...that never happened. Since someone on the boards is trying to replicate my glaive, I'm going to post what I have completed of my rough draft tutorial. I would like to post a a complete how-...

I may be wrong, but I thought Kanos had two different arm bracers, or whatever they are called. I thought one was the plain red armor, while the other was metallic and had all the technical gadgets on it (commlink, etc). Carnor Jax had two matching armor pieces.
