I have been making blade plugs again lately. Some of them I've had for a while. I have a few more ideas and one I'm still improving.

Thanks! I've sold a few of the crystal ones on EBay to get saber spending money.:)

Hey buddy good to see you here. Most of them are brass parts that are found. The crystal one with the silver top is a sewing bobbin.

Oh you copper plated it. Nice! Did you stick a finishing washer down in there? I bought some material today to eliminate the plastic and make a completed brass blade plug. I'll post picks when it's finished. Did you use the battery with a copper pipe electrolysis style?

Yep, finishing washer. I use my PSU and copper sheets or heavy gauge wire for plating.

updating this with a few more cool plugs. Stator coil and Razor head are not my ideas though I did make these.

Hi Jediseth,
If you don't mind me asking, what do you use for the bullet tip in the center of some of your plugs. And, do you use blade stock for most of your bodies?

Thanks.

I use brass tubing and .35 steel or aluminum for the tip. You can put it in a lathe and make a point. There are several videos on how to do it.

I worked hard at this last night. I have an idea to make it better, but It's getting there.

Wow:shock:! Just wow! These are really awesome Jediseth! The reflection on the tip looks really cool, like its glowing hot.

I cannot decide if I would rather a plug like these... or a blade!

What do you do, buy some cheap blades and cut them up, or is there a cheaper source/material?

If that's asking for too much info, feel free to ignore my question. Lol

The bottom portion is just blade material on the last two. Some I make are all metal.
