r/MACES

Made using the same ash wood and bronze studs as the club I posted a couple of weeks ago. This one's more my own design, but I think it's at least historically plausible.

We made a few of these a year or so back 😂 the next ones in the works are a glow in the dark version, as well as a black and gold one!

Any long bonk lovers here?

I just finished carving the last details of this snake club, this is my first time carving wood past whittling, It's been a dream of mine to make one of these for a while, and I'm really happy with the result.

Persimmon wood and linseed oil.

Not really a mace, but I'm sure you all don't mind so much.

This took me 5 minutes and $30 at Home Depot to assemble. If you want to DIY, get yourself:

- 1 x 2ft section of 1/2" black iron pipe (threaded)
- 1 x 1/2" black iron cap
- 5 x 1/2" black iron plugs
- 1 x 1/2" 6-way cross fitting
- 1 roll of hockey tape

and tighten 'em up with your trusty pliers and/or pipe wrench. An 18" length of pipe might work better for a one-hand-only mace, FYI.

This thing is definitely sturdy and well within historical measurements at 27" in overall length and just under 3lbs in weight. Now it will be my new favorite tool for demo work.

I was bored and made this, it ain’t great but I’m happy with it

i remember being at goodwill and seeing this phineal and thinking “i could make a thing with that”.
