hand made barbed wire & tow cables ect. for sale

Post by Cabe » Sun Apr 20, 2008 6:44 am

I can make you as many feet of barbed wire as you need, it is 1/32-1/35 scale and I guess I could make 1/18th scale if you need it. Just specify rusted or clean, painted or unpainted. Straight or rolled.

All wire will be primed and painted using tamiya acrylics and weathered with either a black wash or MIG productions rust pigments "old rust" or newer if you specify.
I charge $2 a foot

also, if you need a wire that is similar to tow cable I can make that for you as well, just be prepared to supply your own end loops/hooks. I can make a loop and clamp it just for the sake of keeping it intact, but the many variations or tow cable through time and nationalities leaves me to just stay with a generic cable. Tow cable will be about the same as barbed wire.

I dunno make me an offer i can do deals in bulk, I will post a pic with an example of a finished wire later today hopefully

Hey Cabe, does your barb wire come with mini barbs or is it smooth?

mini barbs,
i will post a pic here in a bit after i get back from hardware store, the pic i did have of it was a weird exposure and made the rust look pink, like i was trying to add blood to a silly kid's diorama with poster paint. it was ugly.
