My latest five sabers!

This past week I have been busy getting a few sabers done. I did a total of 5 sabers this past week and a half. All look great and no two a like! I thought you might like to see them as much as I want you all to seem them. Lol The specs are as norm with my PVC sabers. Let me know what you think. I love feed back good and bad. 

Thanks for looking! 

Ripper, I am new to the forums and have a few questions about your PVC sabers. Do you strictly use PVC or do you use a combination of PVC, MHS parts, etc to build your awesome looking hilts? Also, what do you do for a blade holder? Specifically how do you address the issue of securing the main LED module & heatsink? I'm pulling ideas together to produce a hilt for Episode VII but I'm on a tight budget so PVC seems to be an economical route. I appreciate any insights you can offer?

Welcome to the forums, Shiblon.

Rip pretty much sticks to PVC as far as I know.

All you really need to do for PVC blade holding is put a blade retention screw into 1"ID PVC pipe. TCSS sells heat sink modules for 1"ID tubes, those would be secured with a second set screw.

Great work, as always, Rip.

Thanks for the reply Miraluka. I appreciate it.
