This one is nothing special, but it is a good depiction of Stock TCSS parts. It’s just too bad that the new ribbed sections and emitter designs came out after I ordered.

This is an LED MHS Starter kit with the “Heiland head piece replica”.
I drilled the holes in the pommel for the speaker from a “Hasbro Obi Wan with The Force” sound board. I had to trim the sides of the speaker to fit into the hilt, and it fits perfectly into the hilt up to the end of the treads. So I used some black electrical tape to keep the Pommel from crushing the speaker.

Here is my latest LED MHS hilt. I'd like to publicly thank Tim for the custom work he was gracious enough to do for me - small v-grooves in a hilt section and a standard extension section.

I installed a 3W "Royal Blue" LED.

Main (exterior) parts: MHS main hilt (style #1), MHS extension (style #1), MHS LED emitter (style #1), MHS pommel (style #1), and a severely dremeled section of chrome 1.5" sink pipe.

The comparison shot is with an unmodded Ep.III Anakin MR FFX. Cameras aren't very good at properly capturing ignited lightsabers. [:(][V] The MR-FX isn't that bright, and the LED is much more evenly lit. Oh well.

1 watt Luxeon cyan (looks green to me) with a Micropuck led driver powered by 2 AA batteries. The hilt is a mhs tappered blade holder with a allen screw to hold the blade and a mhs ribbed section then a section of sink tube and a ribbed mhs pommel. The blade is poly carbonate 1 inch diameter 40 incles long with cordin's double wrap blade film. Picture of blade was taken during normal lighting in the room.

Well, here is my latest. I still need to take it apart and do a proper cleaning of all the parts in prep for polishing. Oh, and I still need to drill a hole in the pommel for the EL. And before that, I need to actually buy a suitable switch.

<font color="purple"><font face="Courier New">Well here’s my latest saber, my first one built with MHS parts.

The parts are Screw on LED blade holder style 7, Double threaded hilt style 2, MHS 2.5" extension tube and Screw on pommel style 3. Uses the MR FX Sound Module, has two red 3w Luxeons and tims blade.

The claws were cut out of 5mm aluminium using a waterjet machine. They cost me about £40 to get done by a company over here, there was no way I could have cut them out my self. They are adhered on with Araldite rapid steel.

I drilled and countersunk the holes in the extension tube and pommel my self, then I sanded all the parts with fine sandpaper and polished it. Originally I was going to paint the hilt and the extension tube black and put a sinktube over it with a design cut out of it, but after seeing all the polished sabers here I changed my mind. I might eventually put skateboard grip tape on it for extra grip, I have some extra laying around, but I’m leaving it as is for now!

Hope you like it.

MHS base set plus:
-3w true cyan led
-momentary 3w driver board from Corbin
-Luke FX sound module
-mirror polished brass accents: I designed, dremelled, and sanded & polished (by hand) these parts

There were 2 additional Corbin components I had to leave out, as there was no room left inside the hilt. I barely managed to get the thing closed as it was.

Well, here is my personal custom LED hilt #7.

Anyway, here ya go. This one is powered by a 5-watt royal blue LED and LED driver module. The EL and LED have seperate power sources, but are connected through a single DPDT switch.

Also, take not of my new RS display stand!! Purchased from Intalleyvision. I had to crop the pics severely, though, to save space on my website.

I have made a semi-major upgrade to my hilt. I have changed to the HMS main hilt section number 4 and the luke pommel. The full MR sound package is still in it with the blue LED. The color scheme is now Copper and Bronze. I like the overall effect better than my first effort.

Here is my latest MHS upgrade. All hilt pieces are made using MHS parts except Luke pommel bought here and a couple of pieces from an FX Mace to add some gold color. Custom graflex-style clamp with a light-up bubble strip. The light-up strip has it's own button (as seen in the pics) so it can be turned on and off independently of the saber. Inside it has a 5 Watt Blue LED (bin is close to Royal Blue) powered by a 9 volt battery that is also powering the LED Bubble Strip. It's also got a Darth Maul sound card and speaker wired to a 4AAA battery pack. Everything is a pretty tight fit. Hilt is about 11 1/2 inches long.

Green K2 Luxeon resistor driven on 4AAA, vibrating motor and power level indicator on the box. Pommel switch (not seen in that pic) is the Lux and the box switch controls motor and PLI.

Gone through lots of plans with this saber. In the end K.I.S.S.

Selling it to fund other projects. Just monkeying around... doing a combo I haven't done before. Trying things (started as smallest MHS possible)...

Hope you enjoy.

Here it is, finally. Just in time for C4, my long awaited MHS saber, the hilt measures at just under 12 inch, it has 3w quick change. (I have 4 colors i can change out), MR Anakin sound, and some beautiful custom pieces by Tim. The grip is made from an extremely strong poster tube that I dremeled, sanded and plastidipped.

My first MHS saber. It has a blade holder #8, ribbed section, double female w/ milled slots, and grip dividers. A 34" blade, 10 degree optics, 3 watt Royal Blue, and a 4aaa battery holder. One of my MR Obi Wan's sacrificed it's, control box pommel, and sound card.

Nice saber Er Dan Gill.

I built up one similar, though without the box, T-grips or brass sections. It's a #8 emitter, ribbed section,
dual female slotted section and the new MPS pommel. I added carbon fiber details between the dividers
and around the neck. There's also O rings on the ribbed section, a covertech knob and a short piece of
T-grip behind a slide switch.
This particular one is using a 5 watt cyan. At C4, this one had an Anakin FX board driving a white K2.
I wouldn't mind eventually having an Ultra board in this.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v345/corbin_das/carbon.jpg

I had another MHS saber at C4. It was a red/orange saber staff. I just had Ace do some custom machining
on the center section. He added recharge ports, some extra grooves and 3 slots for either sound or a lit
crystal. Here's what it looked like before. I've since blown out the LEDs screwing around with battery pack
configurations/voltages:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v345/corbin_das/staff-1.jpg

I don't have the center section yet, but here's a shot of it Ace sent me. I'm going to put black paint in the grooves I think:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v345/corbin_das/staffcenter.jpg

The staff runs on two separate battery packs (each a 3300mAh Li-Ion setup). I enclosed the C cell sized Li-Ion inside a vented
copper sleeve and hooked everything up to that. It's a nice modular setup:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v345/corbin_das/staffguts.jpg


Note, there's a 10,000 mcd 5 mm LED hooked up to light up a central crystal chamber that you'll see through the center slots.

Here's the crystal chamber:

And finally, here's the finished saber:

My lastest one. Destination : ebay ! It's actually my first MHS saber, with reworked pieces. Mixture of various "classic' sabers. MPP clamp, calculator bubbles, obi emitter, graflex grips.
It has crystal focus 2.61 inside, K2@1.5 Amp, li-ion batteries, and 6 leds bargraph... under the bubbles ! 6 sounds banks, all by novastar, he can be proud of that !

Basic parts:

Sink tube
Armitage Shanks handwheel
Real leather for grip

Basic shape without grip, screws, or buttons:

Here it is finished. It has a different switch now, since I added a Hasbro sound board, and I put the covertec button on. I'll also be putting in a different thumbscrew, and replacing the Shanks hand wheel with a MPS #3 when it comes.

First up is the MHS I bought from someone that used to be on here.
It did have two quick change Leds with it, one red, one white.
I decided to change for one of Erv's Cyan as I haven't done one with that yet, & it's more suiting for the imperial Inquisitor character i'm working on at the mo.

This is not a new saber, its my old claw saber. After a year and a bit I finally decided to put some kind of grip on it so I went with a Japanese style wrap.

It's the first time I tried to do the wrap and I think it turned out ok, it's not perfect but I like it. And yes that is stingray skin under the ito.

As some of you may know, sometimes I put together different MHS sabers to use as demo models when I'm promoting TCSS at conventions and what not. Well, I recently purchased some MHS parts to make a hybrid MHS/1.25" sinktube saber and I just finished it tonight.
The 1.5" sink tube adapter will also hold a 1.25" tube on the inside of the adapter. I added some O-rings, then put industrial shrink wrap over those and now I have a comfortable ribbed grip. I haven't decided on which emitter to use yet. Note the recessed on/off in pommel:

The second, was a real pain, but it also my latest pride and joy, with HUGE thanks to Erv and his CFC v2.5 board, powering a royal blue k2. I also don't think I've seen any hilts with these prongs yet.

I've posted this elsewhere, but I thought I should post it in the gallery too.

MHS hilt #1, pommel #3, thin neck, blade holder #3, Covertec knob, leather grip and a custom switch plate.

The switch plate has a small slider switch with a custom switch guard, and one of those little momentary tactile switches. The mom. switch is not doing anything right now, but will be used for the CF. There are also two small flashing LEDs just for fun.

It's got a green K2 (that photographs almost cyan for some reason), powered by 4AAA NiMH through a resistor for now. I plan to upgrade to a CF when they are available.

I added parts from the lens assembly of an old 8mm movie camera to the blade holder to make the end look a little like the BH#5.

http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-1/1236148/mhs3-4.JPG

Close-up of the switch plate before I added the guard:

http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-1/1236148/mhs1m2_2.jpg

Edited to put two posts into one:

I ripped apart the lens from an 8mm movie camera. I used the ring you turn to focus the lens, and the ring you use to zoom on top of that. The focus ring fits on the blade holder perfectly. It's like it was made for it. I drilled three holes and drove the screws into the last groove in the blade holder to hold it on. The zoom ring fits nicely on top of that, and has three set screws to hold it in place.

Here's a better picture. It used to have a tab on the zoom ring, but I took it off. I also covered the numbers on the ring with a strip of aluminum duct tape.

I FINALLY FINISHED!! MY VERY FIRST MHS CUSTOM LIGHTSABER! You can tell I'm excited :) No name yet, I'll be happy to take suggestions ^_^

Runs on a CF 4.0 and Royal Blue Lux V!
I was actually able to fit a CF 4.0 with 6 AAA Nimh batteries (custom pack shaped in a half circle) into the ribbed section.

The AUX button is on the back of the top half. It has 2 LED"s, and let me tell you, that blue LED is FAR FAR brighter then what I was expecting, that little 3mm guy can be my flashlight on it's own in the dark, nevermind the Lux V :P I believe it was rated at 5000-8000mcd.

Charging port at the bottom, the usual :) The shroud isn't as clean as I was hoping, but it's my first effort so this saber is more sentimental for being my first then being perfection :) It was inspired by the Leia Organa Lightsaber, love it because of the thin body :)

I call this The Paladin.

It's running a 1000mA Buck Puck, because I alternate between a Lux III amber and cyan (thanks to eastern57 :D )

I used gold pin striping tape in every other hilt groove, instead of yellow O-rings, like in the render.

no sound in either, yet, might move the US 1 board from vader saber to mine, once my US 2 board arrives, it goes in the vader.

my newest project, on the table is a obi ep/4 type saber. seen a few on here in MHS and decided to make one up myself, just need Tim to make that gear section, and im set,(HINT,HINT) its gonna have either a L3 or LV cyan. got both just need to figure out space, and also get the front half all powder coated. a guy nearby does PC so im checkin with him on prices.

Okay, I'll play. I built this a little over a year ago. All MHS parts. Running a green K2 using a CF 2.6 for sound and LED driver.

The black button with the boot is the master power on/off. The red is the ignition, and the black is the aux. All the LEDs light - the 4 in a row (3 green, 1 red) cycle when saber is ignited. The red flashes when the master power is on, but saber is not ignited.

Two more LED - by the black aux switch is a red power low LED. Next to the Covertech is a green LED wired in series with the K2 so that it fades up/down and clashes. I wanted a crystal, but when using all those LEDs you run out of space quickly.

The body was kept clean so that I don't accidentally hit any switches during use, and do not have anything in the way.

so, they are finally complete...well they were about 2 months ago, just have been really lazy with the photos. both are mhs pieces with old lamp parts subbing for sink tube. Both are running 616 sounds and leds. the Jedi saber is running "hero" sounds and I bridged the green and red led leads to get the orange color. I at one point also fried the power switch terminals, so no ramp up and down when the saber is powered on and off. But before that I accidentally melted the speaker it came with and had to wait for Tim to have some in stock and then wait for it to get to me. After I received it I of course melted off the terminal soldering it. I finally found one at Radio shack(it was the only one the had left,too) that I didn't destroy on installation, so I still get the power up sound. The rogue saber is running sith sounds and has the red and blue leds bridged to get the purple, since I did that one second, everything works perfectly. I also got the cool side effect of the led ramping up red then turning purple at full on.

This is my favorite saber. I know it is a bit common with elements from Anikin/Lukes Graflex, (the grip section) Lukes ROTJ (ribed section) and Obi's ANH (choke and blade holder). A bit long but since I am 6'8 and have big hands it works for me. Runs on a Lux3 blue.

http://i451.photobucket.com/albums/qq232/bigbret50/Lightsabers/IMG_2914.jpg


This is my 4 year olds saber. Graflex inspired I modified it from halloween because it needed a little more. Runs a lux 3 green

http://i451.photobucket.com/albums/qq232/bigbret50/Lightsabers/IMG_2911.jpg


Ok my 1.5 year old really didn't need a saber but it ends up it is his favorite toy. His lightsaber form is very unique... think bull rush with a yell in slow motion. But it is cute... I think this one is not "finalized" yet but for now it is. Runs on a lux3 Cyan (more blue than green).

http://i451.photobucket.com/albums/qq232/bigbret50/Lightsabers/IMG_2908.jpg

Having a Jedi saber myself, and a Jedi lightsaber for every member of the family leads to one question, who to fight. So I guess I just had to make a sith saber. Runs on a Lux3 red.

Here is our latest saber, we call it Hurrikaine, after the violet crystals that Mace used. It uses the new fluted center section from TCSS, TCSS MPS 3 V1, BH style 3, a custom machined choke/turned crystal chamber that contains a real quartz crystal lit by a purple led. Custom brass overlays with double S curves. Recessed re-charge port under the brass. 3 watt RGB led with 250ohm micro pot attached to the board to mix the perfect purple. Pot is accessable when battery pack is slid out. 4.8v NiMh 1000mah pack powering a Hasbro Fx Obi board. Hope you guys like it, it was a LOT of work.

Hey everyone! Got a new saber from the Fender' and Allaerra team!

The "Altus Ferrum" a departure from our normal designs as it doesn't have a choke point :o I know, I know, CRAZY right? Anyway, I wanted a shorter saber, more of a hand and a half hilt, but I wanted it to be elegant and still show some of the elements that are our forte. So, seeing as I just got my powder coating kit with some awesome Translucent Gold, I went to town.......so to speak. hope you enjoy it, here are the specs, pics, and a video:

MHS BH#2 Heavily customized and pc'd in Trans Gold
7" Hilt section custom lathed
MPS #1 custom lathed and Pc'd in Trans Gold
Custom brass overlays
Recessed Recharge port
Color changing accent LED
Hasbro Vader board
Cyan Bin 1 Thats right, I said bin 1 Lux III.
TCSS speaker
4 NiMh 1000mah Tenergy batts
36" thinwall externally sanded blade with 6 ft of "Magic" film ;) is included.

Just a quick and simple MHS saber with a customized blade holder. Clean design is intended for spinning and dueling.The choke houses an inset master switch for the USv2, and the small dot on the front slope of the choke is an inset tactile for activation/effect/shutdown.

The 'main body' is actually a 5" ribbed extension; the switch (guarded) is in the pommel. I really like the combination of the number 11 blade holder and the number 3 choke section. Royal blue lux 3 running off a buck puck being fed by 4xAAA battery holder, no sound. (The 4xAA holder does fit in the ribbed extension, but there wouldn't have been room for the buck puck...)

The blade is a 2 year old Ultrasabers FX blade (turned down to fit the MR sabers) which is why it looks a bit odd in the close up. It's what I had on hand; I'll be replacing it soon.

Hello Everyone!

Im SO excited to be showing this one off! I have spoken to a few of you about it and here it is!
Ferus Gladius


This saber was another design that I had done for myself but decided to let it go and wait. It is of course powered by the uber awesome Plecter Labs Crystal Focus Saber Core v4.1, and ignited by a LEDengin 5w green running at 1500ma. The shroud work is some of my favorite to date, I was trying to go with a more organic feel so I used the S-curve emitter and matched the curve with brass and aluminum shrouds. I made the shrouds start from the same point of origin to give an armor like feel to the emitter. The gill slits in the emitter section show through brass underneath and are mirrored in the lower grip section but that shroud shows aluminum underneath. I used 2 antique lamp bezels on the emitter and the pommel, as well as a brass thumbscrew and cap screw to give some added character.

There is so much bling on this saber, that if you are prone to seizures I wouldn't watch the video ;) ;D There is a total of 9 accent leds with 8 in the upper hilt and 1 in the pommel that glows in and around the lamp bezel there. The first accent led is special cause it starts off red but turns to green in certain sound fonts.

The custom switch box (thanks Randy from Arm on Fire Designs!) houses the lighted anti-vandal switch, mini aux switch, and recharge/kill plug. I used Novastar's awesome compendium to change the default fonts to some less heard ones. The extended resonator MHS pommel adds great depth to the already awesome sound quality.

This saber wasn't made for anyone in particular and will probably go on eBay tomorrow or Sunday, though I was sorely tempted to keep it. Here is a quick list of specs before the pics:

MHS based hilt lathed and milled
Multi-layer shrouds cut from brass and aluminum
Custom Switchbox for main anti-vandal switch, aux switch, and recharge/kill port
2 antique lamp bezels
9 accent LEDS
36" thinwall, externally sanded blade with 6ft of magic film inside
7.4v Li-Ion battery pack
premium speaker
Plecter Labs Crystal Focus Saber Core v4.1
Sound Fonts: Episode V, Episode II, Episode I, Episode VI (more Vader-ish font) NovaStar, Phoenix Sword
LEDengin 5 watt green led driven at 1500ma

Double posting, because there's another saber I've been meaning to post here.

This is the saber I call Focus. It was my first MHS saber, and it's still my favorite. I made and posted pictures of this saber about a year and a half ago. (It's on page 7 of this gallery.)

http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-1/1236148/mhs3-4.JPG

Here's a close-up of the switches.
http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff102/dar4jc/Focus/Focus_01-1.jpg

This saber was designed with two switches, and it was always my intention to put a Crystal Focus in it, but I couldn't get my hands on one until this spring. I ran it on a 1A buck puck until then.

Once I got a CF, I set about upgrading Focus, but I really thought I could do better than the crude switch plate I made. I also wanted to design it with easier access to the electronics. This is what I came up with. I call it Focus 2.0

I wanted to keep the appearance of the saber the same, but make a sliding, removable grip.
http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff102/dar4jc/Focus/th_Focus_03-1.jpg (http://s238.photobucket.com/albums/ff102/dar4jc/Focus/?action=view&current=Focus_03-1.jpg)http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff102/dar4jc/Focus/th_Focus_08.jpg (http://s238.photobucket.com/albums/ff102/dar4jc/Focus/?action=view&current=Focus_08.jpg)http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff102/dar4jc/Focus/th_Focus_04.jpg (http://s238.photobucket.com/albums/ff102/dar4jc/Focus/?action=view&current=Focus_04.jpg)http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff102/dar4jc/Focus/th_Focus_05.jpg (http://s238.photobucket.com/albums/ff102/dar4jc/Focus/?action=view&current=Focus_05.jpg)http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff102/dar4jc/Focus/th_100_2253.jpg (http://s238.photobucket.com/albums/ff102/dar4jc/Focus/?action=view&current=100_2253.jpg)

Recessed charge port. Picked up that method from Jay-gon Jinn.

Originally, I had strips of neoprene foam in the grooves of the blade holder. I pulled it all out and painted the grooves. It looks 1000 times better.

First Tonfa built by me with MHS parts.

Simple eniugh and the "Tonfa holes" are nice, just debur the inside to smooth things out a bit.

Tim I think the spacing was spot on so please feel free to call that the standard placement.

More pics will follow. I may strip them down and anodize them black.

The washer inside the handle will get bent, and the placement of it will restrict an FX battery/speaker combo so if you want a recharge port version that is a nice option for speaker and pack. Tape the batteries in then the nut will hold the whole thing solidly in place using the V in the pack.

Hi all, new member here. I just purchased and received my MHS hilt parts and thought I'd post a pic. Because of limited funds I am building this saber a bit at a time, so I still need to get a switch, all the inner electronics, and a blade but I still love how it looks so far!

Pommel #3 v2
1 each double male connector and 2 inch double female to add a little length.

I'm pretty happy with this, although, like everyone else, I desperately wish there were some genuinely narrow-necked MHS emitters available for doing replica sabers. This uses a royal blue Luxeon V, UltraSound 2.5, and two 14500 AW li-ions (7V). The switch is a tactile switch semi-hidden on the bottom side of the control box.

What makes this somewhat special is 1) the three-color powder-coating (which was actually pretty tricky), and 2) my original replica of the cog-like greeblie, which also serves as the kill key.

The greeblie was designed using 3D software (Cheetah3D for Mac OS) and 3D-printed using so-called "Stainless Steel" at shapeways.com. The material actually contains a lot of bronze, so it's pretty yellow right out of the box. And because of the limitations of the 3D printing technology, you need to do a lot of sanding and polishing. Even then, it was still fairly yellow, so I finished it off with nickel plating.

The control box card is from TFX Studios. It's okay, but nothing to write home about. The copper button next to the greeblie was made by slicing a copper-colored plastic bead.

After a long period of study, practice, and planning, I present my first lightsaber, which also happens to be an MHS saber.


CRUSADER

Its current internals are as follows:

Luxeon Lux V LED
Plecter Labs' Petit Crouton Sound Module (PC-U v1.5) running the Light Meat font
Momentary Accent LED for Power on/off
Momentary switch for blaster/clash sounds
Wired with recharge port mounted in the pommel through MPS
Premium Speaker from TCSS (I may need to replace it; I think I damaged it somehow. It has become VERY quiet after assembly.)
7.4v 900mA(?) battery pack

(Note: Battery pack was acquired long ago for another configuration with the Lux V without the PC-U. Thus, my memory of the current from the pack is lapsed, other than that I tried to optimize it for the Lux V.)

I call it Harmony (my second saber, Chaos, is in progress)
MHS pieces with embossing tape in the main body portion and the blade holder. Adding 1" by 3/16" o-rings to the gaps later. PC-Light Meat soundboard, 2x3.7V Trustfire 18650 from the TCSS. Quick disconnects EVERYWHERE so it can be easily disassembled. Green Rebel V LED in a Corbin 1" thick, quad-wrapped battle-ready blade.

As this is my first custom saber, I decided to go with a simple design (and by simple, I mean within my budget); I want to add some sort of grip in time, but for now, I'm pleased with it. It has a cheapy Hasbro sound board in it, so that complicated things for me. This was my first time soldering, but I think I got a pretty good feel for it! I'm going to tap some screw holes along the bottom for sound to escape/my clip thing/appearance, and, of course, for the retention screw in the blade holder.

Yay!

Ok broken record here... but this is my first build (sending it to my Nephew soon for his b-day). However before I do I get to play with it for a bit. I must admit the electronics in this is shocking and now that I have done one my next one will be alot more prepaired and thought out. BTW another reading this thinking should build one.... yes you should. This has been soo much fun though I have not been getting much sleep (working on it from as soon as I get home until about 2:30 in the morning).

Not much really. Just MHS Emitter and Pommel (added D-Ring), removed the covertech, and the main body and electronics done by the other "guys".

I added some #17 O-Rings on the threads to make a nice tight seal. Very simplistic since I would probably butcher the electronics. ;)

I weatherized my saber to give it more of a used look. Simple technique of using a grill lighter for scorch marks, lightly dry brushed using flat black and silver metallic. Rubbed it down with a soft rag, then clear coat.

This thing is huge! And that is exactly what I was going for, I wanted a two handed saber that was front heavy enough to still spin... Here is a picture next to a 12" ruler for scale.

from concept to creation, mine was designed to be as small and inconspicuous as possible... light and fast, sacrificing sound for extra battery life and to keep the length down.

This bit was tricky... I didn't realize how hard it would be to drill a hole through a piece of brass... Lol

Sorry to bring up a post from so long ago but is this Black Wrinkle or Warlock Grey powder coating? I can't find any examples of Warlock Grey :(

That looks like Black Wrinkle. Examples of the powder coating options can be found here: http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/powdercoat/PCcolors.asp

Do you know if anyone has uploaded pictures of an actual saber? I saw that page, it's obviously far more useful than the MHS builder but it's also not everyday lighting.

MHS system liked the original look added some rubber and enamel spray just need blade retention screw to finish off.

Actually how big is that blade holder in person with a main body? Does it make the hilt complete feel kinda big at all? I kinda like that blade holder still and you hardly see it used much

Great saber! Just to be sure, is that pommel style 10 you're using?

My first saber with sound in a looong time. Hilt 2, blade holder 14, pommel 3, choke 3. Blue dot short AV switch with short bezel, some heatshrink and some O-rings. And a Nano Biscotte with a bass speaker and Nova's Blackstar sound font. And a shot with my photon blade.

My first saber; designed to look simple, functional, and well-used. Wired with a Nano Biscotte.

Thanks guys. ARKM, a lot of credit goes to your saltwater etching tutorial, which was my inspiration and reference. Thank you for putting that together.

Very nice. The etching is great. I just did my first etch today, not as good as I had hoped but not too bad. I love the fact that there are no boxes etc. on the saber, as I find they catch my (numbing) fingers. Love the subtle detail painting. Very good first saber. I assume you are thinking of upgrading to a Prizm sound board as you have a pommel insert for recharge port and RICE port. Are you going to move the recharge port back to the pommel or leave it where it is?

Thanks Sloda! When buying parts for my first saber, I was originally looking for a higher-spec sound board, but I jumped on the first one I could get my hands on. Now that I've put it together, I don't think the ports would fit between the end of the pommel I chose and the speaker anyway, so I'll leave it as is or replace the speaker grille on the pommel next time I place an order.

I learned a lot for my second build, which is going to be driven by a Crystal Focus :)

First saber - obviously heavily inspired by Luke's in ROTJ. Set up with NBv3, blue tri-cree, and a Photon Blade. Pretty happy with how it turned out!

The Saber of a Gray Jedi - once Jedi Sentinel. He named it SOTIRUS, the combination of the Sith words for "Pure" (Sote) and "Light" (Irus). A name filled with such Good, spoken in the language of Dark Side. Its owner held in his hand this contradiction, a constant reminder of the balance of the Force.

~Sotirus is a Nagamaki Lightsaber

~The blade color is Bronze, keeping with the Yellow Sentinel origin and yet following the Strength of Lowbacca (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Lowbacca).

~Sotirus also Extends to a Naginata Hilt

Nice. But @The one who did the Prizm board, how did you mod the emitter like that, using a blank emitter? I don't have the tools to do something like that so x.x Been wanting a design such as yours
