I was bored one day. So I made a Halo Energy "Sword". I don't know if it should be considered a sword, because it's so flimsy. Don't be a jerk and don't post any bad comments, because this is my first instructable.

I didn't feel like taking the handle apart because it was hard to put it together. Trust me, its complicated. Here I show you the handle and try to make it seen from angles that show you everything it consists of.

can you make step 1 a little easier?
tron1o7 says: Mar 5, 2008. 6:16 PM
very nice it would be more realistic if theere was a way for the rods to be the color as the actually sword, but sadly i cant build since i dont have any bendys ='(

I have made a gravity hammer sort of thing from halo3 but it is really flimsy and heavy if I get a chance to take a pic and get it on my laptop then I might post it but I can't make an Instructable it is too hard sorry

Good sword looks almost exactly like halo 1 Can someone make any other halo weapons like the rocket launcher or the mawler ( the weird rovolver thing )

You should put 3 layers on to make it stronger.

I like it, It looks awesome, but can you get different pics so it is easier to make the handel? Nice sword though!
BLACKROD says: Sep 17, 2007. 12:10 PM
Like the idea, and shape, looks really similar to the sword. Just flimsy. Nice job though.
Whaleman says: Sep 12, 2007. 12:37 PM
Seems a little on the weak side, but cool none the less
noskid7 (author) in reply to WhalemanSep 12, 2007. 5:58 PM
I said it was weak, REALLY weak. Im not that proud of it anyway. I was just bored one day, its not like a masterpiece or something.
cowscankill in reply to noskid7Sep 14, 2007. 2:57 PM
i might find a way to mod it... if I wasn't out of pieces lol. I made a 6 ft tall cola bottle shelf out of knex. I might post it
