So, I am still working on one saber, just some hilt hardware to finish. But my sister and I just came up with an idea that seems it would be fun to build and use.
A 2 Bladed Saber!
No, not a double blade saber, but a saber with TWO blades.
Like this:

It would be held by the mid section and the two saber hilts would be parallel to the forearm.
I'd also want to place the activation switch on the mid-grip.
It is designed so the whole setup is a little smaller then a sheet of printer paper (8.5x11)
Also, the blades themselves will be short, 24 to 28 inches.
I want to have sound, probably the NB, but I haven't even begun to think up the wiring. As I mentioned, I have yet to finish the saber I'm working on now.
Just wanted to post this to get some ideas, or give some ideas. I'm not sure if I thought this up my self, or if I've seen this some where (I may have been inspired by Wolverines claws.)
Feel free to take this idea and run with it. I just keep imagining it would be fun to use. You could lock your opponents blade between the two, and with a twist of your wrist, fling their saber right out of their hand : ), theoretically.
I don't always build sabers, but when I do, I prefer TCSS. Keep Sabering my friends.
