I'm working on a sink tube build as a gift for a little girl who loves Ahsoka. It is going pretty well, but I'm not happy with the pommel.
I've got a spare acerocket obi wan I could use (with a TCSS adapter) but I wanted to save that for something else and it is not quite exactly like Ahsoka's pommel.
I had a plastic piece from a saber my son built at Disney a couple years ago which looks more like Ahsoka's. I modified it a bit and painted it silver, but while it looks pretty good, it looks more grey then chrome.
The rest of the hilt is coming out so well I really want to "nail" the pommel as nicely as I can. I've searched all over for a faucet which might work, but alas no luck so far.
I know others out there have done some Ahsoka builds in the past. Any suggestions? I've attached a pic as a reference for what i'm going for. I realize getting it EXACT without a machinist (is that what they're called?) at my disposal is impossible, but I want to see if there is some other option I'm missing. Thanks!
