HOW TO - Make your own Wolverine retractable claws

More Showing Claws
Wow, check out Nate's amazing Wolverine costume complete with retractable claws... - "The outfit was visualized, conceived, and conceptualized entirely by Nate, as were the claws. However, Nate did pick up quite a bit of help along the way as friends came forward to participate in the creation of what many said was "The most accurate costume I have ever seen..."" [via] - Link.

And.... Halloween is fast approaching, a "maker" holiday if there ever was one! Have a great spooky project, hack, tip, costume idea, favorite material or tool related to Halloween? Email me and also stay tuned for a fun MAKE & CRAFT Halloween contest!
