Short Sword
Long Sword Great Sword Quarterstaff
ShortSword:
about 24 inches of 1/2 inch pipe makes an average
shortsword, but use your own judgement
LongSword:
use 1/2 inch pipe not longer than 38 inches, but shorter is ok
GreatSword:
3/4 inch pipe for this one, as long as you want. Personally I like about
5 feet.
QuarterStaff:
3/4 inch pipe here too. Once again use your judgement on length.
6 feet makes a nice staff. A staff of course has no handle or crosspiece,
so make the necessary adjustments to the instructions on this page.
