Indra: Hindu God of Rain and Storms
Rather than being cooped up inside the house on another rainy day weekend I decided to venture out into the garage and finish up a saber I have been putting off for far too long.
Since it was pouring rain when I finished up this saber I thought naming after a rain God would be appropriate.
Indra is made up of MHS parts that I powdercoated in Black Stardust and Trans Gold. I cut some grips out of some ribbed brass I had lying around and mounted them on some Fun Foam. This provides just enough grip as well as cushion for maximum comfort. It is running a Master Replica Force FX Jedi soundboard, a Luxeon III Green LED with a Green Illuminated switch to match. Indra is powered by 4 AAA NIMH batteries with a recharge port in the pommel.
Here are the pics:
