How best to maximise a Thorns-based Crusader build?

How best to maximise a Thorns-based Crusader build? - Close Up Photo of Telephoto Lens

After looking at this question after looting a level 70 adjusted Hack, I was thinking a thorns based Crusader build might work (although I've never played Crusader). Along those lines, I have a couple of questions:

  1. What is the maximum thorns amount?

    EDIT: http://www.d3maxstats.com/ gives the maximum at 31,490. So I'd expect that 10,000-20,000 is reasonably obtainable

  2. What skills interact with thorns or are thorns based in the Crusader set?
  3. What items interact with thorns or are thorns based that a Crusader can use?
  4. Any other considerations for a build of this sort.

I think this type of build will be a lot of fun just standing around and letting things kill themselves on me, so any other advice is appreciated.
