Half-Life Crowbars (POLL!)

[Nickelob Ultra]

most people think to plate something, that you just dip it in molten (material)
nope. not sure where that fiction came from.

How the f-... doing that just leaves a giant layer of it on the object.  God damn people need to retake chemistry.

no stuff, that's why it's not rubber.

Titanium-plated rubber crowbar? With a laser-etched lambda?

if you can get a full even layer at all. if its flowing a molten metal, it will slip right off when the object is pulled out.

metals dont stick to things like fudge, just on a stick waiting to be cooled lol

I want one but would it be able to be shipped to Australia or not?

Yes, but he lives in the USA, so it may cost extra.

How does your friend have all of this machinery?

Well what do you think?

But from the sound of it you're planning on selling it aren't you? That goes a bit beyond a kid drawing a spongebob picture.

It's not like he's selling with a big corperation or something. Stop being dumb.

He's not selling it, so I don't think there can be a lawsuit, and since it is not illegally obtained, he should be fine.

He is selling it but he's only selling a couple for some extra cash. It's not like he's making a living off of it.

How does your friend have all of this machinery?

If you'd have a job then you'd know!
I'm adding a poll, since you guys can't say "Yes" or "No"

[MaroonCacti]

Well what do you think?

HOW DOES YOUR FRIEND HAVE A TITANIUM LAZER PLATER AND A LAZER ETCHER?
NO NORMAL PERSON HAS THIS stuff IN HIS BASMENT.

[Extrude]

Except you can buy crowbars in the same color scheme at Home Depot for $30...

[Dominator]

I smell lawsuit!

Hundreds of people made portal gun replicas, I don't think Half Life crowbars will cause a lawsuit.

OT: Are they real crowbars you can use to break things/kill people?

Are they titanium plated?
Do they have a lambda etched in it?

Well of course, otherwise I'd say "fake crowbars"

My friend isn't some 10 year old who plays too many video games, he's done this stuff before.
Please go outside.

[Cookieman4276]

I would buy one, I mean, who wouldn't want a Half-Life crowbar?

[Dominator]

Well of course, otherwise I'd say "fake crowbars"

So they can kill people? Er, I mean open locked doors.

[Counter98]

So they can kill people?

If you want them too.

It's not hard to buy cheap titanium guys...
I used to take Welding in high school, all the metals we used were either titanium or steel. He bought that stuff for a dime a dozen.

Just use a cutting torch on a solid titanium block that's roughly the dimentions of a flat crowbar and cut out its basic shape. Use a grinding wheel to sharpen the ends and shape the shaft, a steel saw to cut out the notch, then finally use a brazing torch to heat and bend the ends to the desired angle.

As for laser etching, also not hard.
Or you can do it by making a small weld bead with a MIG welder.

Spray paint and let dry overnight, apply one more coat and repeat.

It's not hard, anybody could do this.

[Ceist]

I'd buy a crowbar.

That's still grounds for copyright infringement.

LAZER PLATER

You can't coat something in laser.
