Hy all, :)

WOW! That's a beatiful sword Andy.

On Playclicks they are discussing the benefits and procedures for casting your own accessories. Since you now have a sword you like, perhaps you'd consider casting it and making duplicates - it may be easier than making them individualy, especially if you need many (for example, to send to your friends! :D).

the sword´s a great idea Andy.
 It is difficult finding a sword that`s even a little like the swords of this period.

Why should someone do a musket custom? There are playmo-muskets already, no? Do I get something wrong here?
