as you cas see after vigourous dueling, the wire accents fell off and i lost them all. anybody know where i can get replacements or how to make new ones would be awsome.... im just looking for opinions

My opinion would be... learn what it would take to throw a few miniature LEDs in there... that would be a pimped out way to upgrade it.

GRANTED... this means you'd have to take things one step at a time and learn to solder, wire, test LEDs, etc. :)

DJ, there are no replacement wires available for that. You can try what Nova suggested or just cut some correct sized wires and hotglue them in.

[Gin Malinko]

yeah just adding your own wire in there would be the easiest thing to do, but using the holes as like a veiw into the crystal chamber or something would be awesome. like just stick one led in there to have it glow out. i think i saw that recently on a saber in the MR conversion thread...

Hot glue FTW

;p

I really like the crystal chamber idea, that would look awesome.

[DJMoonbass]

ya i think ill go with that idea. i will just mount it in the mill and drill it out i will have to see if the blade holder there goes all the way down past those openings. but ya thanks novastar ill deffinatley do that.
Ive been soldering for a while and i know how to calculate resistors. My first LED project was the C3PO. and i do know about wiring in parrellel and in series. just a matter of applying that knowledge.;-)

I took mine out of my MR Vader and dremmelled out the hole.
Looks really good as the led sits just behind them. Pics will follow when the building is complete.
