Building the guard
Use a PVC pipe(diameter 3.2cm).
Cut a PVC pipe.
PVC pipe can be cut with a saw.
But a Pipe cutter is more better.
It can cut quickly and neatly.



This is a video of cutting method of PVC pipe, bending method, jointing method.


Bend a PVC pipe by heat.
If you don't want to use fire, use a Heat gun.
Use a Gas toach or a Lighter.(Be careful about fire)
Hair dryers can't bend.
When you heat, equip globes.

(Smoke may be generated. Don't breathe in the smoke and don't put in eyes.)





Super glue can glue a large surfaces easily.
But it can't glue a small surface such as this photo well


Then you should use a following spray.
I always use this.
Watch video.

-About paint
I use following paint.


You can use acrylic paint, when you use Gesso.



I use Thinned "Bond G17"(one of liqud glue in Japan) in this tutorial. But this method is danger, then I don't recommend.
I recommend Gesso or Wood glue thinned with water.


Paint "Bond G17"(one of sticky glue in Japan) thined with lacquer thinner three or four times.
Don't use fire until drying, because "Bond G17" burns easily. Don' use a Lighter etc until drying.
(It will char in seconds.)
Dry it about 2 ~ 6 hours.
