Picture of your weapon?


Generally things like a prop balancer, a file and common sense can be used.

I know this is a personal thing but I find the term "spaz out" offensive. I had a handicapped brother and don't like this term being used casually when there are plenty of other terms you peeps could use. Not having a go, just a polite request :-)

I just balance blades on a knife edge to find the center of mass, then file bits off till it's in the middle :L
