The torch is cool but it looks like it would have a high breakability rating. Especially if it was three piece deal. Keep us posted on the progress. Chongolio

Congolio, i think your right the torch in three peice would be very breakable. i might have to do some redesigning like making the slats at the base bigger, so instead of alot of slat maybe only 4 of them, making them wider and stronger. these are just kind of rough draft sculpts, i think i might do a little more designing and tinkering. i show any changes i come up with and let people know when they actually start getting made. thanks again
