Reflection
First Design:
As i first was drawing up the design i was worried that the metal would be to thing in the middle and that it might be brittle and break. The base also may be to big for the hilt to sit on
Construction:
I have realized that i can make the base curve in a bit so the hilt can sit on the bottom on little "hooks". The curve is definitely strong i was wrong, the metal is thick enough so it won't snap.
Final Artifact:
I think that the final Artifact is really good! It came out really well and didn't take to long either only about 5 hours. I'm very happy but there are some things i would like to improve on like making a better brass finish for the hilt. Besides that, i think that i did well.
