I just wanted to say hi and thank everyone who has posted info, diagrams, etc. This forum has been invaluable for my first saber construction!

Graflex 2.0 scratch/dent kit from TCS (It's like a work of art.)
Bladebuilders board (may the 4th deal $10)
Tri-Cree BBW (both Blues wired to LED -, white unattached for now)
2w bass speaker
18650
Recharge port
Order 66 base chassis (really cheap way to mount everything, didn't order a chamber or outer sleeve.)
Touch-activation on clamp strip
TFA configuration

I was so excited to get it all in and lit up that I didn't do a great job on the install/chassis. That said, it works pretty nicely and I've got plans to pretty it up.
Next up, I'm going to wire the white LED to the speaker - to get some flicker and a rudimentary FOC, since the speaker output gets brighter as the sound gets louder. I tried using the Speaker - on the Blue LEDs but I felt it was too dim.
After that, I've got a pair of quartz crystals and a bunch of brass tubing/hard drive parts to make a CC that will mount on the flat part of the chassis underneath the board.

So much fun!
