Swodchuck Update Jan 2012

Hi there folks it's Hanuman (long time no see!)-- before I get into it I'll be able to attend these focums for the next 28 hours after this post so if you drop a comment I'll respond by then!

I'm clearing some new ideas I've had with some engineers and it's looking possible that swordchucks can be weaponized, that is, the swung sword's blade can be directed mid-flight and adjusted to the random angling. making it actually viable.

This is good news indeed as I'm continuing my martial arts training (under Loki's machete combat) you could be looking at a viable swordchuck form within the next 2 years (once I work out the kinks and get a formal and professional-grade weapon forged/modded) and after doing some extensive physical conditioning I think controlling iron or steel models is completely viable.

The final rigging will be modded to fit bolted kevlar wicks for working fire-swordchucks.

Thank god for a recovering budget, thought it'd never come out of the redline!

This is excellent news, Hanuman. I can't wait to see the end result.

You are within range of creating a new breed of swords. X3
