How to Make Rey's Staff - Star Wars DIY
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 авг 2024
- In this tutorial I'll show you how to make a simplified Rey's staff from Star Wars The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi. It's a little time consuming, but fairly cheap and easy to construct from PVC pipe and craft foam. Had requests for this from Doreen and Yesmarvel76. The piece of pipe I used for this was left over from the Aquaman trident ( • DIY Aquaman Trident - ... ), so my Rey staff ended up being a little shorter than it should have been, but you can adjust yours to fit your size. A lot of the D-rings and fasteners were just spare ones I had lying around, so not sure where all of them came from at this point. Just use whatever you can find that's close.
MATERIALS USED:
1 PVC pipe (mine was 1 1/4 inch diameter)
Scrap strips of off-white and brown fabric (the more ragged the edges, the better)
Hot glue gun
Scissors
2 sheets of 3mm craft foam (amzn.to/2DH7K2y)
1 sheet of 5mm craft foam
White school glue (amzn.to/2DGICJe)
Foam brush (amzn.to/2nlY9rb) and cup to hold glue
Black paint (I used lacquer: amzn.to/2sc7HKL)
Metallic Gunmetal Gray paint (amzn.to/2EFMCuN)
2 D-rings (or something similar)
A 3-bar fastener (so the strap can be adjusted)
1 5-foot piece of beige strapping
2 clasps to hook onto D-rings (amzn.to/2EHxNI8)
*Optional: Distress ink or brown food coloring to age to staff wrappings (goo.gl/H87sr5)

I followed this video step by step and mine came out perfectly. I still have it hanging on the wall in my stairwell and I get so many compliments on it.
Thank you Woodlen elf
Crystal
Glad to hear it 😊 May the force be with you.
This has given me some inspiration for a cyberpunk style microphone stand which looks like a futuristic looking wizards staff.
Sounds awesome!
I’m so excited To make this for my 6 year olds costume!
Nice, may the force be with you 😊
this is great!! what would be even more helpful was if you listed the sizes of the foam shapes and the rough places on the pipe where you put everything... i have extremely poor spatial gauging so it was extremely difficult trying to figure out how big/small i should make the foam pieces
Good tip, thanks 😊 I'll try to make sure I'm more specific in sizes from now on.
jerk
I made my daughters this was a great tutorial. Thank you!
I wish I could post a pic for you
Glad you found it helpful for your daughter's costume 😊 Love to see a pic if you'd want to email one over.
Super !!!!
that's awesome finally you do Star Wars thing I love Star Wars 2 great job by the way it's beautiful
Thanks 😊
Great video ,but can you please make a stormtrooper armour costume
Yup, it's coming up fairly soon on my list, just haven't quite gotten there yet.
Your profile pic scares me
Can't wait to see the robin costume! xD
It's coming, but it'll still be a while yet, because I've got a lot of requests of my list (I get them faster than I can make them, so some people have been waiting almost a year)
oh that's fine :D
Nice job. Though I would've done the fabric wrap last. But keep up the good work!
Thanks 😊 Yeah, definitely fabric wrapping last is a much better idea. When I was painting it, I was sitting there asking myself why I didn't wait to wrap it, but at that point I didn't want to have to unwrap everything. So, everything the hard way I guess, lol.
I just now watched Star Wars: The force awakens and browsed for it and this thing popped up!
Cool! Glad to hear it 😊
The Woodland Elf yeah!
This is really good 😁 could you please try and make Empress Reys dark lightsaber?
I'll add it to my to-do list.
That's amazing! Can you please make the white Valkyrie suit from Ragnarok?
Thanks 😊 Sure, I'll add Valkyrie to my to-do list. It'll be a while before I get to her because I get requests faster than I can make them, but I'll let you know when I get it posted.
The Woodland Elf Thank you very much! You've helped me a lot with a ton of costumes. Youre the best
I've always thought this staff was supposed to be used for something more than just being swung into a bunch of attackers. If it does nothing special by design in Episode 9 I'm going to wonder why it wasn't just a plain pipe all along.
Le bâton de Rey que vous avez fais est vraiment très très vrai , vous m'avez beaucoup aidé pour faire le mien .
Merci. Heureux que vous l'ayez trouvé utile 😊
Awesome. Very creative
Thanks 😊
Nicely done!
😂😂😂 I did know that was coming. 😂😂😂 and yes, I enjoyed The Last Jedi. So much so that I saw it 4 times in the theater in 2 weeks. 😨have to admit that I'm in denial still. 😭😭😭😭
YAH, someone else who loved it!! 😁😁 I know a lot of people who complained about it, and I was like, come on, it was a good movie! A couple people I know hated Luke's transition, but that was one of my favorite parts; they did it in a very fitting way.
The Woodland Elf my son loved it too! 😉 I think Luke had to be that way. It was the only explanation for him hiding on the most unfindable place in the galaxy.
Exactly!
This is amazing...
Thanks 😊
wait i know this seems a lot but can u try to make a batfleck suit from batman vs superman?
Yup, Batfleck is actually already my list. Have had several requests for the BvS suit.
awesome
A great job.
Thanks 😊
love it great job
Thanks 😊
awesome really like it!
Thanks 😊
Great job!
All together how much craft foam did you need? Dimensions of a sheet of foam.
I used around 2 sheets of the 3mm craft foam, and 1 sheet of 5mm craft foam.
Don't worry Woodland elf....you will be famous one day....!😉
Aww, thanks, you're too kind 😊
No...that's not the reason I'm feeling so pity for you because you have made many videos but you never worried about the views you just didn't stop being creative and do videos...I surely can feel your pain don't wory woodland elf don't stop being creative make more and more videos let them reach to each and every corner in this world and surely you will get more support from me I have never felt this pity to anyone in this world but you....being this creative and you are not getting enough views...don't worry that you aren't getting many views I will always be there to view all your videos...like them....and share them.... But don't quit and break the hope I have in you
Don't worry, I been doing this for almost 6 years now and don't plan to stop any time soon, 'cause I have a lot of fun doing it. So I'll keep on posting. Thanks so much for all the support. 😁
So glad to hear....
Thats exacly what i was looking for! I have just a little problem i have only 2 milimeter craft foam will it work if i glue two layers togheter?
Yeah, you can glue two layers together. Or if you don't want to bother, you can probably just use 2mm foam just the way it is. I don't think it'd be much different, since it's only a 1mm size difference.
Gracias!
Roughly how long is the staff?
Mine is about 62 inches long from end to end (I'm not sure how long Rey's was in the movie).
hey, um how long was your PVC pipe?
A little over 5 feet.
you think you can get craft foam at Jo-Ann Fabrics
Yup, Joann Fabrics has it, so does Michael's, or pretty much any place like that.
Wow!
Do you make these to ship at all? 🙂
I'm not doing commissions this year, because I've got a lot on my plate right now, and not a lot of extra time. But hopefully I'll be able to reopen my prop shop for orders next year.
what if u dont have hot glue
If you don't have got glue you can use power-tac or e6000, etc. Basically anything that's stronger than Elmer's type glue.
How much does this all cost??
It's probably around $20 if you buy everything new (I had some of the stuff like the paint and fabric already on hand when I made it, so it cost me less than that).
To me the PVC was the more expensive part and the foam colored markers and fabric was on clearance at joannes and micheals.
Honestly it’s a lot of time and I just did a little ea day. I measured twice before I cut foam pvc or fabric. Very sturdy and everyone loves playing w it. Would say it put me at about 35.00 for all supplies
Nice but i dont live near a desert ;(
Yeah, me neither actually, so I stood in front of a desert picture.
haha ;))
