Fiberglass Core

Fiberglass Core

This Epic Armoury Fiberglass Core is one of our DIY products used to create your own Live Action Role Playing weapon, while still benefiting from the safety of an Epic Armoury blade. This fiberglass core is strong and flexible, has various diameters and length, so you can choose a perfect size for your DIY weapon.

Directions for use:

There are multiple methods to creating a LARP weapon, but here are the basics! Carve closed cell foam into your desired weapon shape and secure it around a clean and sanded Fiberglass Core. The glue will grip a sanded core better and improve durability of your new weapon. Remember to leave a safe amount of foam around the core in order to preserve its safety! When the shape you desire is achieved, dip the weapon into latex and allow to dry between layers for a smooth, protective surface.

Coat your latex equipment with a thin layer of silicone to prevent the surface from drying out, and to prolong the lifespan of your weapon. Always check your weapon for damage before and after each use. Wrap the handle with leather or cloth for a finished look.
