Victorian Artificial Arm

“Made from steel and brass, the elbow joint on this artificial arm can be moved by releasing a spring, the top joint of the wrist rotates and moves up & down, and the fingers can curl up and straighten out. The wearer may have disguised it with a glove. Among the most common causes of amputation throughout the 1800s were injuries received as a result of warfare.”

WOULD GIVE MY LEFT ARM FOR THIS ARM.

People still use PVC pipe as a core? o.O Huh…

I’ve never broken a weapon, and I made all of mine (except for throwing axes) with PVC cores. Not even my “whippy staff”.* My concern is the multiple layers of foam would make it a) really bulky and b) because of the extra layer of duct tape, way more painful if someone gets hit with it wrong.
