Gimli Costume Part 3 – How to Make Gimli’s Axe
Gimli’s Axe is pretty easy to make. The basic supplies are just pvc pipe, foam, and paint.
This tutorial is actually filmed and narrated mostly by my brother, with a little addition here and there from me. His Gimli costume was a shared project between the two of us, so he thought he’d try his hand at filming a little something. He shot this in his prop room, so it’s a bit cluttered in some scenes, but hopefully you can get the gist of it.
If you don’t have access to the thick EVA gray foam that my brother was using here, you can just glue several pieces of craft foam together to get the thickness. If you want a template for the axe blade, I have a free pdf one you can use here.
