Got the small shroud cut, drilled, and polished. No lathes or drill presses. Just hand drills and dremels around here.

Nice coating and looking clean. Good stuff! IMO a few more small overlays or other details would add a little more character to draw attention from the MHS.
Thank you! Patience is my virtue ;)
Its hard to tell here. But the bottom shroud has 3 grip panels with 1/16" brass rod inlay. The rubber grip material is temporary. I have something else Im working on for the panels.

Oh wow! Now that's different. I wasn't sure about covering the grip section but that is really cool. :cool: Nice work Arkanjel.
That's a very attractive saber.
Very nice indeed.
Thanks! Im really happy with the overall color scheme. I believe this one is going to a female friend of mine.
CF 8 with wireless RICE going inside.
