We are looking for javi's to buy, approximately 4 ft. Post your prices and how many you have to sell.

OR

I'd be willing to make a number of them for you, and today, I proved myself by making a very good one. I should be at Wolfpack Opener...if you go, you can just see how well I can make them, and decide if you want some from me personally, or not. I would charge 40 to make 6 javs (which if you want to know how I came to that number, just pm me) I mean, 45 for one from edhellen is good if you're going really professional, but if you want a well-made jav, you can always count on people. Umm, if you're looking for a solid number, such as 10 or 20, I'd make the price still fair.

Just let me know bro.

*, Azrael, that's cheap as hell. $40 for 6 javs?


I just built a fresh jav on .602 Kite with a little bit of 1/2" PVC in the head to extend the core from 44" to 48". It weighs 12.5 oz and has 7/8" of blue, 1.25" of marine foam, and 1.5" of open cell in front of a very stable head base made of a pre-prepared shaped cylinder of 2.2 Ethafoam. It's pretty ballin', if I do say so myself. I can post about if anybody cares. I haven't gotten a chance to use it yet.

Haha, yeahh, well I just was being fair, in my opinion. (material costs + time + quality).

Trust me when I say that the price an Edhellen javs is totally driven by demand, not materials cost or time. At $45, they sell out every event, without fail.

EDIT: point being, you can for sure make them cheaper.

Tonight, sure. All the covers are already on, though, so it'll just be a skinny-ish javelin with a fat, slightly tapered cylinder-shaped head.

Chillin' in the corner with my glaive (needs more striking surface padding!), spear (awesome), and a couple of swords, I guess?

+ Spiral blue haft padding, standard blue double cap and wrap pommel, cloth tubes for the big parts of the covers to save on weight. I could do lighter, if I had another stick of this core, only 3 inches longer than this stick was.

A few of us guys in our unit made some javs that fly pretty * good out of that 3/8" 4' fiberglass you get from tractor supply. Spiral blue all the way up it and build a head at the top using blue and jo ann fabric green open cell. And we've had good luck with ours. I've had mine over a year now still poppin fools at random. It's possible to Make 10 of these in 1 day with 2 people working your * off btw.

Have you found and bought any yet, I would be more than happy to make them.

You really need to start looking at the date dude.

That's why I asked if they had found any. I figure they probly have, but it can't hurt to ask.

It does hurt after 3 and a hlf months, actually.

But how else is he supposed to get his post count up?

Haha this is true.

Hahahahaha, so very true, especially with him admitting it.

It was killing two birds with one stone.

And yet you continue to do it.

3.5 months doesn't seem unreasonable to ask if someone is still looking for something, especially during early spring months. A friend of mine had to wait a good 6 months before he could find someone to make something for him. Anyway, I can make study, quality javs for $24 each. Not one to mess with shipping though, so it really depends on your location, which I don't see listed...

Thank you, I didnt think it was.

Who were you asking in the first place?

The person who made the thread.

That's what I thought....even though I never got my money for my hours upon hours of work....I already made him the javs he wanted.

Next time you comment on a thread pertaining to people buying things, always make sure you ask the person who offered to make the things.
