Very good! What are you using to hold the blade, and LED? Do you have the 1.25" blade holder in there, or did you rig up something custom?

That's a really good looking hilt. I like the silver blade for it too.

If you want to try for a purple filter, here are the ones that I've found on here. I've not tried them myself yet as I don't have a blade to experiment with as of yet.

Lee filters-
"Magical Magneta" #795 page 70
"Saturated look" 002 Rose Pink and 704 Lily
"Bright look" 128 Bright Pink and 704 Lily

If there are other combos that people have tried, please post them.

Just a 1.25" blade holder.

Violet looks pretty good on mine. White LEDs aren't usually perfectly white though. Some are cool white or warm white. Mine is a little cool. So Just try a few Lee filters until you find one that works for your LED.

Great saber Vargose. You pass in my book.

I like the Providence purple lee filter. It has a nice purple tint and is transparent enough it lets alot of light through.
