lol, thanks for answer man.
Guess I should have read on before replying.

joe size, 3.75

At that size,I would get the 1/8 inch thickness sheet styrene and carve your swords from that.You can shape them with sandpaper as well on plastic. :D

where can i get it in the usa?

If you don't have a local model/train shop-try Great Models Webstore

Next question-
is there anywhere you can get 1 1/8 scale benches?
As a backup, theres always MJs sweet chairs, but custom made benches would be a better option.
TIA Chris.
Maxtype- thats interesting about using styrene to cut swords.
Have you done this, or know anyone who has?
How easy/feasible is it to do?
ive been wanting to make a scaled kukri for years- this may be an option.

I have made 1 sword from styrene....not bad for a first attempt,unfortunately it's packed in a box somewhere...... :p

There are a lot of things you can make by laminating and shaping sheet styrene,boxes,crates,maybe even bunkers and stuff!

Look around on the web,modeler's sites,1/6th scale modeler's-you'll get a lot of inspiration! :)

I forgot to mention difficulty.Like anything,it's hard at first but you'll get the hang of it quickly.

On plasticard,you can draw what you want with a pencil right on the plastic.Get a good steel ruler/straightedge for measuring and cutting,and you'll be on your way! :D
