Well I've been seeing some really great blade plugs lately using some in expensave materials (that's key) and I wanted to make my contrabution. And this thread on how I made mine. And I want you all to add yours so keep'em comm'en.


To start here is one using the core of a brushless motor and a section of blade material. This piece is from an uemg blade I carefully ground out enough of the material inorder to fit the motor core to be press fit, no glue yet but its a pritty tight fit.







I had to dermmel off the base of the motor


Here in va


And here in sy



The next one I used a rotory razer head and a piece of  brass used lace tie holes.


In sy


Unilumated


And in va

Amazing! Nice thread idea too, I've been thinking this thread needs to be made.

Well some pieces are electric motor cores some are faucet vents, heads from electic razers, camera flashes with altered pluming fixtures. You name it use your imagination and go nuts

My blade plug was made from scraps and a quartz crystal, its none too pretty and quite heavy but I like it.




and below is an "in progress pic"


Sorry about the rather blurry nature of the pictures, I took them with my old camera.

Here are some shots of two crystal chamber plugs that I made. They are modifications of US bladeplugs using an amethyst, a quartz crystal, paperclips, polymer clay, lenses from a scope, copper wire, and a dead diode.

Point for the thread creator, and I was about to spend some money to buy some like these...thanks for the motivation to get creative! The razor head looks very promising and simple enough, but the motor core looks even more simple. Nice work gents points all around.
