Hello there !
I am making my saber but I have a little problem on a choke part like Madcow's lightsabers:

I wanted to make this one by myself on adding a "1.25 in. sink tube" between two "MHS to 1.25.in sink tube adapters" like this I pictured on the MHS SaberBuilder:

I don't own any drill machine but I would make it pretty nice and resistant, obviously with tcss parts.

Thank you for helping and MTFBWY.

You got nice pics and everything, but the sinktube adapters are WAY too short in your render.

Secondly, I fail to see the question.

That won't work. The end of just one of those sink tube adapters is longer than the whole choke you want to make in your render.

The MHS Builder only shows the part that sticks out of the sink tube, not the part that goes inside it.

And how would you even connect the 2 adapters and sink tube anyway, if you don't have a drill?

Is there a reason why you don't just want to buy this short choke?
