First LED saber *Updated*

[Orgazmo1109]

Its not done but it should be tomorrow or saturday. but here are a few pics until it gets completed. The Blade will be visible through part of the hilt of course. It would have been finished tonight but i need a new sink tube cause some holes i drilled dont line up with Tim's blade holder. This originally was gonna be a El but i decided against it. everything for a EL is inside but i just decided not to. Sorry my camera sucks...alot Any ideas for a mid section? something to put in between the head and rubber grips? kinda bland right there.

Just the blade.

tHE byb doesn't have the gap though, but that's an improvement! :wink:

[Orgazmo1109]

BYB? any ideas for the naked area in between the head and grips?

[Ryma Mara]

BYB is big yellow box. its a site that has 7 or so styles of sabers that you can build with hardware store parts.

The footmans loops are used on a couple of there styles. My guess is that you dident build your saber after a style from BYB?

When you can post some bigget pics with a better camera so we can get the full detail of your hilt.

[vortextwist]

looks real good, try BYB for some grip Ideas
Edit:(my link was messd up) thanks jinn :lol:

lol

You could draw a Lightsaber... Or melt down all the crayons and cast a Wax Lightsaber. :D Now that would be cool!


Idea... Anyone up for making a wax mold of a lightsaber, make a cast, then make a reson hilt from the cast... hmmm...

That reminds me... xwing, where's your nifty reson something-oor-other saber you were teasing us about 6months ago???

I don't want to hijack this topic, so if you want to discuss this it should be done in another topic.

[Ambo]

to late....u already did it....you do it now without even thinking....muahahahaha....just comes natural to ya dosnt it....

[vortextwist]

You could make a whole box of lightsaber crayons. :idea:

Time... derailed by life, I'll probably start going at it this summer. I'm going try to use up all my spare boards. The idea was the hilt instead electronics so it can wait.

[Orgazmo1109]

ill have to check bigyellow box out to get some ideas. maybe i can come up with something for the center section. ill have some better pics tomorrow.

So you've never been to the BYB?

Edit: OK maybe not...
