      I doubt he'll ever make any vehicle customization as they're illegal for street use in America. It's not really enforced as you can see people all day long with carbon fiber hoods and whatnot on their cars. However, it's still illegal and I doubt Alec is seeking any form of legal repercussions. Would be cool though.

      Pokemon Master where is it illegal? Yeah, exhaust mods and crazy lighting can get you in trouble, but since when was a carbon fiber hood illegal? Besides, steel bumpers are legal in most states, so long as you don’t have the lifted way off the ground

So nice to have some ABS Mastersmiths like Josh and Neil there to glean some ideas from and lend a helping hand. I am glad that the Stiletto will get a proper stand to display it beautifully. Speaking of the Aussie in the room, since he recently also made an epic and stunning Main Gauche and you have a Damascus rapier on the wall, perhaps after this sweet project a matching Main Gauche will be made to dual wield with that sweet rapier. On Guard I say.

    Hi Alec, here's something I've been throwing around and no one wants to pick it up or are up to the challenge because it must be a huge undertaking but if someone can do it, it's you guys. I don't know how often you read your comments or if you do at all after a certain time but here goes..
    If you do read this and since you asked what your followers wanted to see you do, here's what I would actually like to see get created from scratch... Forging a 1:1 scale of Thor's hammer Mjolnir in the way Eitri and his fellow dwarfs would of done it. Not welding pieces together (for shape) and then filling it with lead but rather taking a solid piece of 5160 steel and actually forging the hammer from start to finish (folding it a few times to show some patterns), with all the engraving on all 8 sides done by hand, not electro/chemically etched. Having a Tungsten handle running through it all the way to the disc on top of the hammer (maybe done in a socket so that the handle screws in to the top disc via a forged socket for extra strength). 5160 steel is what a true and real Mjolnir deserves, heat treated and tempered would make it the hardest, densest, strongest, heaviest and maybe even a world record title holder and one of the most incredible piece ever forged. I'm sure that if such a Mjolnir was ever forged in such fashion, that it would easily be given a seal of approval/certification from Marvel Universe/MCU itself. With such a validation, a phone call to the Guinness Book Of World Records would be the next step. Just imagine the publicity, the viewers count, new subscribers following such a project coming to fruition, it would go extremely viral, especially with Marvel certifying it as the best 1:1 100% life size scale around, making this all forged Mjolnir a one of a kind.
    P.S. This would not only be a one of a kind but also a true Master piece of forged steel, a highly collectible Marvel item that I am sure would have true Marvel Universe/MCU older collectors/fans go into a bidding war to acquire it. The only way to do so is to really make the size a 1:1 life size scale replica of the original in the movies. Which if 100% accurate and certified by Marvel themselves, would fetch a very high price. Hence why the need for it to be made out of 5160 steel, heat treated and tempered, have the art engraved on all 8 sides and have a Master leather craftsman do the handle, also have Master hand engraver do all 8 sides and then electro/chemically etched the Celtic symbol on 1 side and the worthiness enchantment electro/chemically etched on the other side (neither side engraved) the worthiness spell and Celtic symbol need to be very subtle to the eye. The pummel would need to be 5160 steel and made to look exactly as the one in the movies and absolutely needs a leather strap attached to the pummel even if never used due to the weight of the hammer. I can just see it now, it would literally be a Master Piece of forged steel and again, a highly one of a kind collectible item.
    Is it possible or is it too much of a challenge to create?
