That hilt looks nice. Good styling.
I think the luke only looks good with the original design of a very thin under emitter portion. The thick neck kinda takes away from what made the thin-neck version cool for me.
I have heard that the replica lukesabers have good balance though. I really like the look of my anakin MR but it's not a practical grip for spinning the thing. I sometimes think how you would need a robot hand the grip the damn thing right for a fight...
Anyway nice work! Can't wait till I have some pictures of sabers I built.:D
Is the neck portion copper?

I agree, im not a fan of the fat neck either. But it is what it is right.

It is not a cover up. I inlarged the original emmiter hole slightly. The piece that is comming out is actually the new blade holder.

The blade holder was made on my lathe. Thats also what I used to inlarge the stock emmiter hole. Its not a MHS hilt, its a Luke FX.

That is way awsome! I agree totally that if they were like that I would have picked one up. Very Nice Indeed.
Too bad it's not for sale but I don't blame you, that's awsome.
