What types of weapons in this group are most people interested in, or is it a wide variety? Just seeing about getting a general gist of what to be building in the armory.

I'm looking for two sabres - slashing and piercing one-handed swords, and I was thinking of making a hand guard that wrapped around my hand. Nothing strong, just bending a piece of foam, glueing to two points, and wrapping it all in one long piece of cloth or black grip tape.

You say you gonna build em yourself or you would like to see them get built? I want to establish the fact that I'm thinking of starting a small foam forge, and could take custom orders (or generic orders) from folks and try to provide people with weapons at a low cost. Is there any interest in this?

I say I thought Alric and a bunch of people were going to have a smithing party where we all work on them together and learn the basics.

That's the plan. On the 15th, we'll set a date for the smithing session. Hopefully, we'll be able to find a better smithing location than the study lounge.
The Swin 2 guys (Jin, Balor, and others) have some crafting experience, and I would love for them to come not only to learn new crafting techniques, but to give their input as well.

No worries. It is a good plan. I would like to implement it on a slightly larger scale. We'll talk more on the 15th.

Hope to see everyone there then! It will also be nice to have multiple people who really know how to make the weapons, and from the sounds of it, we have quite a few foamsmiths.

I dont know if anyone plans to make one yet or not, but I would like it if we would be able to make a spear or two.
Hope that falls into the budget ;D

Spears are awesome if you can get a bunch of people together with them and have a few shields in front

Cock and balls, a noble tactic indeed!
