Weiss's barrier is achieved by dust, and the actual shield is not that hard to replicate using Hardlight.

Penny's swords are lasers, and she has shot multiple smaller laser shots from them before. There has been no indication that the charge blast was anything but her swords charging up the standard shot into a larger charged shot, and she uses the strings to activate the charge attack. The very same strings which give her control of them in every other situation.
