tubby131313 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I have been thinking about building something 40k related for some time now, since I have some time off I thought I'd give it a try. I narrowed my choices to a chain axe or a plasma pistol, after drawing some plans I decided on the chain axe. So I broke out the carpentry tools and some MDF and this is what I've done so far. The pieces for the sides of the blades are made of 1/4" x 1 1/8" Lattice. The bodies of the blades, the one on the left has had the edges beveled with a router. The blades had to lose some weight and my ancient jigsaw did the job. What I ended up with after the first day. There are a few more pics in my gallery. I'm not sure what colors it is going to be painted, so if anybody has an idea let me know. As always I welcome any Comments, Criticism, and thinly veiled threats.

helterskelter Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 To make it even lighter you could do the same using 10mm EVAfoam (floor mats usually). Excellent shaping for the axe though, perfection. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/305061-11-scale-chain-axe/#findComment-3986180 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJB2K3 Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 If only it were motorized Awesome stuff! bigger is ALWAYS better! Looking good so far but I only give you a 5 out of 10 as there is no motor and no real moving chain saw teeth! Can't wait to see more.
