Do-Clo

After some thought I decided to convert another MR yoda saber to replace the one I sold.
I decided to use a 3/4 inch blade instead of a 1 inch this time which allowed me to more closely match the Yoda emitter and I thought the 3/4 inch looked more in scale with the saber. I am currently using a 3/4 diameter 36 inch long Do-Clo blade on it and I think I will keep the length, it keeps those pesky Jedi from getting too close. I used a red 3 watt Luxeon led emitter mounted to a custom heatsink that I made. I replaced the green led on the center clamp with a ruby crystal which is more in line with the overall sith feel of the saber.
