Ever since my finacee found out about my penchant for saber building, she has lusted after a Yoda "replica". It took me many months to get around to figuring out how to built it, but I finally did it.
Based on a 1.25" aluminum tube and featuring Tim's 1.25" LED blade holder, the saber is driven by a Luke 2005 MR sound board and features a 4.8v NiMH battery pack.
Using a 28" Ultrablade, this saber is extremely bright and so much fun to swing around due to its light weight.
All details were hand-built on this saber, from the shroud cover to the control box that houses the recharge port and switch, to the grips and the sound chamber out the back of the saber.
