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.

My first saber. mhs kit with 2.5" extension
Here's my MHS w/ a green 5w Luxeon. I'm currently using a 6v pack to power it, so I expect it to get a little brighter w/ more juice. [:)] *MR Luke is the in these pics for comparison.
medium light
http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a1...566/lux5g2.jpg
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.

"Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some idea-balls to remove from a manitee tank."
<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.

-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.
Go here for additional pictures.

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.
http://www.theclanmuir.org/images/Up...tsaber%202.jpg
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.
