Hey guys, I came up with this new design for a sith saber but it has a lot of custom bits that I would need someone to machine for me. So I'm not sure if I should ask Tim if he'd mind making the parts for me or find someone to make the hole thing for me? So what do you guys think?
Thank :D

Ahh that’s the easy part, I've all ready got that (lol the wonders of being a cleaner and having a great boss that lets you have the bent part of a hover tube) so that parts not going to be hard to make. Its the machine parts I'm stuck with as I don't have a lathe that I can use :(

Tim doesnt do custom work anymore.. only customizing default MHS parts...

I'd say 95% of that looks like it could be machined from stock MHS parts.
especially now with the new fluted sections.

I would actually say that all of it could be machined from MHS stuff. It wouldn't be exact, but it could be done.

Right to left

Blade holder style 2
Choke style 1
Fluted extension with custom groove milling
MHS to sinktube adaptor
curved vacuum piece
MHS to sinktube adapter
choke i'm not sure about
MHS 2" extension, custom grooves and possibly shortening
pommel style 4

That looks like it would be about 2 feet long...Nice design though.
