This saber was a fun build for me for a couple reasons. First of all its a commissioned saber so I had a carrot on a stick urging me to finish. Second the design was submitted to me to build so I did not have to both with any of that artistic crap for once :cool:. And lastly this is the first painted saber I have tried and I really like the way it came out.
I receive a PM on one of the Airsoft forums I am part of in response to an ad I placed wanting to trade a custom saber for an Airsoft gun. The PM was from Dwayne of Dee's Custom Airsoft. after a few emails back and forth Dwayne came up with this design and trade deal was worked out.

For the black I decided instead of powder coating I opted for spray paint enamel which was baked in the oven at 250 degrees for 4 hours.
The specs of the saber are:
MHS hilt
Seoul P4 Red
4 AAA battery pack
guarded switch
Hasbro Econo sound
TCSS Heavy Dueling blade custom sanded with Poly P wrap
plastic Covertec knob
