Liver Punch Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 A steel ball has been acquired and is en route to my machinist. He'll be able to cut it a week or two after he receives it. The biggest concern he has is the ability of the aluminum shaft to withstand abuse. He figures that attacking people, animals, plants, and fungus won't be a problem. The problem, he hypothesizes, is when we end up abusing it and assault rocks, farm implements, shoot it, etc. The solution to this would be to have a shaft cut out of steel...however, this solution may negate the need for a big ball on the end anyhow. I figure that I'll get this one cut and sent to Tallgeese as some sort of lifetime achievement award due to his old age and what-have-you. Then, I'll have a steel replacement tube cut for a Maglite with the specific intention of it being able to give (and take) abuse. "A gun is a tool.
