Actually I used a core from a golf club that i broke off... Still unbroken. Although, i did trim it down from the "break point" maybe that helped. And did not make it as long as some. The oddest thing i found is the odd shape of the core led to a slightly odd shaped sword... and odd upon intial foam to core contact. I had the foam come off the core 2 or 3 times before just getting annoyed and leaving it unrepaired... I guess i'll add it on my list of things to do...
