I was bored, and decided to make a MHS saber. It's an ugly saber, so not many of you will like it.

Not really ugly... The concept is interesting. Very Sith in color selection. YouŽll probably have to move that covertec clip a little because of the pommelŽs threads. IŽd paint the thin neck section in brass color and add a timing belt to the neck itself (IŽve seen that done around here and liked the look of it :P). Just my two cents :)

Thanks for the feedback Vazan. I was trying to go for a Sith-ish look. But I totally forgot about the pommel threads.:oops: I do think it would look the thin neck would look pretty cool in brass, and the timing belt idea does seem pretty cool too.8-)

sometimes simple is elegant. Looks like the belt clip needs to be on the other end. You could see about putting some windows in the top section for light to shine through. A custom handle may give it some pizzaz. Just some thoughts.

Some people use it inside-out with the teeth facing outward to dress up parts of a saber.

Or use as grip material.

How do you glue it onto the metal?

I like it. The only issue i have is your clip placement it really throws off the balance I think. Personally I'd movie to a bit up and not right there at the end. yeah..

Krazy Glue works like a charm though it can be messy. Use as little as humanly possible.
