I can see that. Twilight with original music by Rob Zombie.

So I figure a wand is typically something thinner, like maybe the width of a pinky.
(Unfortunately, the main event I cosplay at -- Magfest -- is in Maryland and the blasting rod falls under billy club laws, so I can't carry it at the con. The nearly-six-feet length of holly I made into a staff, however, is perfectly safe, apparently)

Out of curiosity, what is the blasting rod made out of?

I laugh at this.
Does it matter? It raised awareness and made the author some money.

Jepp, that’s true. I had a friend who was into that scene and I’d occasionally go to those types of parties with her because you need to try everything once or thrice in life. ;P The stuff in the books was just the middle aged writer’s sex fantasies based on nothing. The nonsense that Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey get up to is pretty boring and is missing all of the things like safewords. (And, yes, those are really the names of the characters! Anastasia bites her lip nonstop as well and it drives Christian mad with lust. Need to try that trick next time I meet a bdsm billionaire.)

A pine dowel from Home Depot.

So .... I'm a big supporter of Boy Scouts, and this last summer was my 9th year going to the same summer camp. This camp has big meaning for me.
While I was there, I was allowed to harvest three small oak trees. I gave one to my son (who went to camp with me the first 7 times) and kept the other two.
I'm letting them dry out now, but will begin my carving of them, probably summer of 2020. Though I'll admit, I'm a bit impatient, and I may start one of them at summer camp THIS summer.
They each are about 6 feet long, but they'll be trimmed down a bit.
I'm saying this because I plan on acquiring some more oak from here to carve a blasting rod.
Any suggestions for where I can find the types of runes for the carvings?
