I like that button with the backlight. Very cool. Nice, clean look!
Nice! I'm working on a similar build.
Sweet! That's my kinda switch ;)
I love the use of the Madcow-style backlit tactile switch placed right in the threaded section. Was that difficult to achieve?
How'd you backlight the switch? Is the LED behind the switch somehow?
Yes, it was very difficult! It took a lot of trial and error since this was my first build but its totally doable.
The backlight is really subtle. It coming from the actual saber LED since I had to cut into the heatsink.
Looks good!
Beautiful!
