This is my first weathered saber made from various sink tube and some parts of a Ultra PVC saber and a hasbro saber a scalvaged the clamp part from. I also tried a different type switch which I thought worked good for this one Cyan BIN 1. Let me know what you all think.

Looks nice, though I think it needs a bit more weathering?

Forgot to mention it was made from all spare parts except the card on the clamp and the switch.

I'd keep the clamp. Love the weathering, & nice use of a rocker switch. Not seen one used like that in a while...

I'm not usually a fan of weathering, but it definitely goes well with this saber. Is that mid-section shroud an actual shroud, or is it machined in?

Nice!
I like how you incorporated the rocker switch... I had seen them in stores, but always thought they'd be too bulky and out of place. GENIUS

Nothing machined on this on just sink tube overlays and pvc base under it.

Very nice! Still trying to decide if i like the weathered "hey, ive actually killed some sith with this thing" look...

Or if i like the "Hey!! I just went through the trials yesterday and my Master helped make this sweet saber!" look...
