Im looking to recoloring the stripes on the luke ROTJ emitter plate silver and black. I put the first coat (silver) down fine, and i was planning on coloring in the black stripes with a marker, but that plan failed miserably as it wont reall fill in too well and i cant get it straight for the life of me.

Do you mean the neck? Just tape off what you don't want black and lay some black paint on the rest. If you can't lay the tape straight, use the existing edges to your advantage. Come back with a an exacto, run it on the outer edge and it will trim the excess tape.

If you mean you need to redo all of the black (neck and grips). Just tape of the ends and don't worry about the tops of the grooves. Lay your black down and when it's dry, use sandpaper to bring back the "silver".

I think you are forgetting the base of the Luke is aluminum... you can sand and polish it to your delight.

no, just the little rubber part that covers the screws on the emitter switch.

There is no emitter switch... the switch on a ROTJ Luke is on the control box. Are you just calling whatever you want the wrong name?

Sound like maybe you mean the circuit board... I'm confused as to what you are refering to.

I am having a really hard time with these threads that have to do with other peoples items.

This is Ultra's kit! Ask Ultra!

I don't understand the idea about buying something elsewhere and asking questions here. I get asking about corbin's board, but corbin's board is sold here. Am I wrong about this?

Yes and No..

Yes it is rude to ask about competitor’s parts on the forum, however; he had a building question, which is generally expectable. It just happened to be focused on Ultra's part.

Ultra sells a blade holder... other than the beating he gave it to get it in, what doe that have to do with repainting?

I'm still quite clueless as to what he was worried about since there are two striped parts... the circuit board and the grips to neck. He says it's neither, curiousity has the best of me. :)

Heck, I figured it was just best to say it again.



and McD, since Ultra sells MHS sabers I think it has been kinda standard to help out on that. Now of course there have been questions that I agree should go straight to the seller but hey, we have to have somethin to b!^$# about. :wink:

i never called you stupid, pyle, i just said something good about you, like for example that was a smart thing to say in your level, but not ours. i never called you stupid. If anyone can find where i called pyle stupid please raise your hand. *noone raises their hand*.. exactly i didnt call you stupid, and like i said i take that compliment back.

:roll:

And to think...


It was a nickname given to you as a promising young boot camp recrute for the Derailment Unit.


When it was given it was an honor... From me. http://www.gaownersclub.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_grr.gif


Glad you like it so much... http://www.gaownersclub.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_shake.gif

Well gents i might have some potentially sad news if its true, but i read on a news site that Tom hanks, yes "The" tom hanks, died in new zealand while filming a movie.

that one I'm not going to believe until I read it elsewhere myself. There was a spoof magazine put out last year ( Link (http://www.harvardlampoon.com/premiere/)) that had a cover that said "Remmebring Tom Hanks" among other things.

Firebird, the sad thing is he never understood that from the go. We actually had hope for the boy the first few weeks there but well, we know how that went.

And Maul, for the record, Countdown didn't call ya stupid. I most likely have but I don't think anyone else here has. This bunch is a close bunch, countdown got the major a$$ reaming daily until he showed some respect. I am still suspect that you are in fact a troll just trying to cause trouble on the forum and may even be from one of the other boards for the purpose of messing up this one. For someone to jump in here in July and cause the disruptions and crap that you have just begs to get snitzcanned.

Okies...

a) you don't like what someone says, ignore it
b) OP figured it out to his satisfaction

a + b = thread locking. I'm tired of reading it and if this continues I'll take it to another level. Use this smilie more often: :roll: and keep the forum to more saber talk. :wink:
