:star: The Zanpakuto Tsuba Index

The purpose of these drawings is to help swordmakers and propmakers. When it comes to making katana's or zanpakuto's most of the time the tsuba is the most unique part of the sword. It is the part of the katana which has most of design. So I drew up these closely detailed and accurate measurements of these tsuba's. With these tsuba's they act as a reference when your going to attempt to make the sword. If you use a scene from a anime or manga to make use reference for your tsuba, it might be flawed. So I have saved you the trouble and drawn them all out clearly, with measurements so you can print and cut them out.

:bulletblue: SuzumushI: This sword will give you HELL if you dont make it out of a strong wood. However if its a strong wood cutting out those 7 holes will be HELL. If you dont use hard wood then the wood might snap which is HELL. Overall I hated making this guard especially putting in the ring. To add the ring cut out a piece of wood from the tip place it in and wedge back in the gap.

:bulletblue: Hyorinmaru: My god this guard is HUGE I spent a long time trying to make sure the guard wasnt too small or too huge, a good balence was needed. Trying to make the outer rim on this guard was murder and took many hours and it still wasnt proportional. You gotta not underestimate how hard it was to achieve this detail XD.

May I ask the diameter you used for your ring for Kaname's sword? Just curious.

BTW, don't worry about thanking me each time I fave your stuff. You've got enough fans to thank. I'll always be lingering around and I know you appreciate us. :giggle:
