Usage of these Holy Weapons included fighting enemies, providing an additional 2d10 radiant damage to undead, and Bike Polo.
Each hammer is hand crafted, taped and blessed by me personally. They are rich with
Pelor's radiance and guidance. The tape is a signature Red & Gold representing the radiance of Pelor.

I've come across a few aluminum ski poles and I have an available stock of ABS pipe. I have a couple mallets made NOW, but I will be making more. I'm broke as fuck so I can't give them away for free, otherwise I would. So I'm willing to make and sell (or trade) you a custom Blessed Warhammer. I just want to be able to pay for some beer (will accept beer in trade) and fuel the Bike Polo scene in LA.
They can be cut to any length, my standard is about 38 inches - depends on the length of the pole. I only have ABS (black pipe) at this time and I make them using a standard design I found online (See Pic.)
Barleye and Danya each have one of my mallets if you want to check them out.
I can also sell the poles separately if you want to make your own. I can cut them to any desired length and tape the end for you. I'd give them away or charge for just parts if I could, but I shouldn't because I'm broke. Real broke.
This is what I'm charging, I'm obviously not trying to get rich:
Blessed Warhammer (complete mallet): $10, cut to size, taped, built and blessed.
Additional Hammerhead: $5, cut & pre-drilled for your existing mallet.
Ready to use ski-pole: $5, cut, taped & pre-drilled (if desired.)
Just a ski-pole: $3, uncut.
Just the hammer head (5-6 inch): $2, cut to length, no drilling, no holes.
Email me if you have questions, suggestions, or for something really custom.

I don't think there is a "standard" for anything when it comes to DIY Bike Polo. The best I can do is make one from the longest ski-pole I have, and minimize cutting. But the longest pole possible will probably be too short for freakishly tall people.
I should be able to finish it today.

The mallet should be just long nough that you can reach out out 3 feet to the side of your bike and still reach the ground.

I'll take the lightest one you have. Good price.

Thanks for the endorsement Matt. I'll be able to cut them shorter if needed, no charge. Having them long enough is the biggest issue, i'd say.
I have standard standard aluminum poles from various brands. I'll pick out the lightest one, and if you know the length, let me know.

Doesn't look like the mallet is skinny enuff to stick into the spokes. Can I have one with a skinny end on it on one end?

I'm stoked on my mallet...i'll be at the DTLA polo tomorrow night if anyone wants to check it out.

Dak - Are the poles you're using standard ski poles or cross country? Watch out for the cross country poles, they're a straight tube, whereas the regular ones taper, which is why the heads don't wiggle or slide. You don't want none of that. Solid & sturdy is the way. The one you made for Danya looked great. Haven't seen it since that night....
DANYA COME BACK TO POLO WE MISS YOU!

Sweet deal, what with the local supply of thrift store ski-poles exhausted since 2000.
Hopefully you still have some of these whenever I get down there again.

@Skano, will do, sir. Do you have a preference on a length?
How about you, Stillline?

@ ROADBLOCK I have a very long ski pole at my house. TC4TB and I kept it around thinking someone would need it.

@bent, let me know when you come back down, what ride, and the length you want the pole. I make mine between 36" and 40".
Roadblock's is a manly 42".

Roadblock and Stillline, your mallets are ready. Shall I bring them to MR tonight?
July, yours? Does Chynna know?
I don't have any time to make any today, but I will be able to make more next week. Anyone?

Can I have one for myself?
I am about 5 foot 7 or something.
Yellow tape if I can request it.
I have a 24 pack of PBR to drink with you as payment. I can pay cash if needed also.
I really want 2 mallets so I can bring an extra each time. If I give you cash and beer, can we work this out? If not, maybe a "+2 Hammer of the Gods"? A special mallet would be a treasure to me.
Thanks Dak!

X-Large, I'm all out of SCOTT ski-poles, I only have 2 poles left! They're both silver, by the time they're taped up you won't be able to read any branding.
As of today I'm sold out of mallets.
July owes me $10. Chynna has your mallet.
The last ones are for Skano, TheDude and X-L. They'll be done next week.
I'll bump this thread when I come up with more.
