[Applause]

[Applause] all right so as you can see here we have

all right so as you can see here we have

all right so as you can see here we have our little switch this is basically just

what do you think that I should do with

what do you think that I should do with this I have an idea for a deployable

this I have an idea for a deployable

this I have an idea for a deployable shield and I’m probably going to use

shield and I’m probably going to use

shield and I’m probably going to use Kydex or some sort of metal because

Kydex or some sort of metal because

Kydex or some sort of metal because creating a compact little dish of some

creating a compact little dish of some

creating a compact little dish of some sort would make a lot more sense than

sort would make a lot more sense than

sort would make a lot more sense than having like a full deployables shield

having like a full deployables shield

having like a full deployables shield although if we did have two of these

although if we did have two of these

although if we did have two of these things it would range pretty far

things it would range pretty far

things it would range pretty far we could probably machine something that

we could probably machine something that

we could probably machine something that would hold these two together or we

would hold these two together or we

would hold these two together or we could weld it because it is a steal so

could weld it because it is a steal so

could weld it because it is a steal so that’d be a cool little staff of some

that’d be a cool little staff of some

that’d be a cool little staff of some sort

trying to find a unrolled er all right

trying to find a unrolled er all right so if this thing was one solid piece

so if this thing was one solid piece

so if this thing was one solid piece it’s about three feet four inches which

it’s about three feet four inches which

it’s about three feet four inches which isn’t bad now keep in mind we could

isn’t bad now keep in mind we could

isn’t bad now keep in mind we could extend this thing five inches

extend this thing five inches

extend this thing five inches and this would actually be pretty

and this would actually be pretty

and this would actually be pretty freakin cool to have like a expandable

freakin cool to have like a expandable

freakin cool to have like a expandable staff but I feel like a staff would be

staff but I feel like a staff would be

staff but I feel like a staff would be with five feet or more so maybe we won’t

with five feet or more so maybe we won’t

with five feet or more so maybe we won’t do that I think that this is going to be

do that I think that this is going to be

do that I think that this is going to be a really cool project I have a bunch of

a really cool project I have a bunch of

a really cool project I have a bunch of these things pretty sure they’re not

these things pretty sure they’re not

these things pretty sure they’re not legal in my area but for the novelty and

legal in my area but for the novelty and

that but these things have a lot of

that but these things have a lot of energy and I want to unleash it in a

energy and I want to unleash it in a
