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.

<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.

MHS base set plus:
-3w true cyan led
-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.
