Double threaded hilt style 3
Screw on pommel style 5
Build Your OwnLuxeon III Electronics Kit
LED "TCSS style" Battle blade 1" OD (36 inches)
Screw on LED blade holder style 3

Is that all thats needed to make an led saber?

Looks to me like you've got everything you need, plus something extra...what do you need the 1.5" sinktube adaptor for? That part is for attaching a blade holder or pommel or other MHS part to a hilt made from a chrome/brass sinktube. You really don't need it for the hilt you have the MHS parts for.

Add also, you'll probably need batteries.

Whoa 30 inch blade? You do know the blade goes in the holder about 1 1/2 inches right? If your wanting a 30 inch blade, get a 32 inch and cut off some if you need to.

2 bladeholders and one eletronics kit?

YEah I would get a longer blade and trim it to fit when you start to play with it.

A friend of mine bought a 30"blade and wished he got one longer.

Stupid question?

What holds the blade in?

thumbscrew?
Glue?

Theres a thumbscrew and then theres a set screw, setscrew gives an nearly invisible look which uses an allen wrench, then theres the good old thumbscrew which well uses your thumb and finger lol

I use a set screw on my personal one, but thumb screws on a few others.
It depends on the look you're going for.

And i'd definitely go for a longer blade.
Realistically, a 32" -36" would be best.

Whta is the MHS to 1.5" sink tube adapter for? Doesn't seem to go with the rest.
