So … as far as I’m aware, standard technique here is:
1: Cut camp-mat foam to shape
2: Paint
However, it would seem to me these would not be very practical for accurate throwing. So here’s a list of questions …
[ul]
[li]Is it usual to use multiple layers?[/li]
[li]How are they stuck together? A lightweight non-rigid adhesive? Duct-tape?[/li]
[li]How could weight be safely added (for to cause better throwing behaviour)? Wrapping with Duct-tape before painting? Incorporating a spell-packet into the middle of the ‘knife’? Dipping in latex?[/li][/ul]
I guess what I’m envisioning is using a couple of layers of soft foam to sandwich around a standard-issue spell packet, thus creating something that looks like a knife, throws somewhat more predictably, and is no more dangerous than throwing spell packets at people.
Gear gurus … does this sound safe/practical/reasonable?
