I'll do a video tonight before I send it off to its frosty new home.

Thanks for looking, MTFBWY

Hey DL, photobucket won't let us look. :(

Hey DL, photobucket won't let us look. :(

That's strange, it shows up for me. I even logged out and looked as a guest

The photos also show up for me.

I think it looks great. For a real fighter, how does it handle? All the cut outs in the shroud look like they might bite into bare skin.

I'd love to see the custom chassis.

All the cut outs have been smoothed and rounded to avoid that. It feels very good in the hand either choked up for a single hand grip or 2 handed.

The chassis isn't removable unfortunately, due to the size constraints and the different features needed I made a modular chassis which consists of 3 sections, 1 to hold the Main LED and the CEX, another to house the PLI leds and recharge port that is secured by the switch and provides support for the tactile AUX switch, and then the last piece cradles the battery and secures the board while giving access to the SD card through the pommel.

Ok, weird. I could see the pictures yesterday, but today they are the PB evil icon.

Congratulations, a very clean and detailed saber. I love it, especially the perforated mesh areas.
