That is the most elegant use of the simplest of parts!


Excellent job!


Edit: I have just one gripe...


I think it should be Blue or Green. Only because it looks like a Jedi saber, not a sith. I like red but if it was mine it would not be my first choice for this one. (At least not after assembling it.)


That's my $.02. Take it or leave it.
Edit #2: Ummm... Yeah... I just read your Topic Title... My bad.
I still think it looks more Jedi than Sith. I couldn't begin to explain why, but that's my first impression. Still, it’s an awesome saber!

Thanks! I was going for simple! Kinda like the original trilogy sabers.

I agree, it does look like a Jedi weapon. I just really like red right now.
A nice feature of MHS parts is that I can change the color at any time!

[Lord Maul]

i too think it should be a jedi saber but still, that is one slick job there jtsteph 8) :shock:

Another fine job cranked out there bud!

I really love how you accurately captured the red and the awesome use of a Graflex button.

[JediHilt]

[MasterStoney]

[JediHilt]

Evil Minwax? :lol:

[jtsteph]

I try to make my red blade look like the OT blades.. So yes, it does look pink.......from a certain point of view.

Very cool saber jtsteph! I too thought of Mara Jade's saber. I would say it looks like either Jedi or Sith so it is a Shadow Jedi saber, IMO.

[jtsteph]

Thanks. I have to take some new pics because it green now!

[Lord Maul]

nice work guys, we peer pressured him into changing the color :lol: :shock:

[MasterStoney]

it's a good thing, i'm not down with the pink saber :lol:

[jtsteph]

Yes I crumble under pressure! :?

I actually had the green LED in my first maul fx so I switched them out.
