Sure, a lot of us have used a dremel tool to hack apart LEGO elements. The cut-off wheels make quick work of ABS, and makes the job that much easier. And we know that once a cutoff wheel gets dull, but not chipped, we just throw it away. I've had a little stack of dull wheels that can't be used on ABS anymore, and I had an idea. This is that idea:

I took three cutoff wheels, used a razor blade to enlarge the pinhole a little bit, glued them together, then stuck a rod in for a handle. I also took a 4L Technic Bar with Stud, cut at the stud and glued the stud to the front. This adds playability and customization: Alone, it makes a decent boss. You could add a stud to it, and have a larger boss. Add a bayonet or similar pointy object, and you get a scottish targe shield.

As far as I know, this is original. I haven't ever seen this done before.

Woah, now that is awesome, CB! If I had a dremel, I'd do this wippity-quick. I especially like how you glued the stud to the front; very creative.

Brilliant!

Great find!

Whoa, nice.

Thanks guys. Glad you enjoy it

Well played, sir. Well played.

Thanks SV!

Quick mod/upgrade:
Used the handle from a Castle Kiteshield instead of a rod: This works much better, but requires a shield to be sacrificed. The handle from the kiteshields offers better poseability, and just plain looks better.

I bet with the texture of the dremel bit that paint would look really cool on it.

I bet it would. If I had some good paint I'd try. Or if I were any good at painting I'd try
