That is one sharp hilt, very well done!!!
Custom box made from 1/2" aluminum channel with a 1/2" wide aluminum piece bent and formed to enclose the box. The switches are both in the box, you can see the little black plungers from the...
A lot of people use LED bezels for the tips of the crystal to sit in. Like XL97 said, brass/aluminum tubing works well too. Check out my TFU1 post in the gallery... I used an LED bezel inside a...
A little, I think I have the LED value at 50 if I'm not mistaken. Pretty sure 35 is 700mA... I think that's what it wants.
Well said.
The drawings were horrible lol... Tim did an awesome job with no thanks to my poor drawings... That's BH 14 with the lower 2 fins taken off, grip lines machined in it and dimples in the flat of the...

Star Trek is fantastic, always been a fan ;)
Would this fall under the "path of least resistance" rule?
I think you would have an easier time just using the proper resistor instead of doubling up.
Thats a good idea also. I was thinking of having the two outside in // and the two inside // for a basic animation, I'll play with it once I get the board in. Thanks for the idea :)
The PC version will have a limited 4 SMD bargraph, two tied together and no low power indicator as the PC doesn't have that feature. I'd put a CF in it but I am not planning on keeping that hilt. ...
Thanks for the compliments guys :)
...the last pic is of the two side by side, the one in the stand in that pic is the prototype. Just have to install the PC in it and its done ;)

This hilt was a challenge. I forced myself to incorporate ideas/techniques that I've never attempted, yet keep my personal 'style' that my hilts usually have. The forward section is...
Truthfully I was loving the game play and story line... until it ended. I was so shocked that it was over, I really thought I was about halfway through the game. I let the credits scroll all the...
This looks fantastic, glad I pre-ordered it. I'm really excited for the story line, I'm soooo darn curious!!!
I'm just catching up here... sorry I missed this one!
Crystal, very VERY well done!!! You have a very elegant eye and a great attention to detail. I will second what LDM has said, your progress...
Yep, those stands are sweet ;)
I'm a little late, just wanted to say I enjoyed your story... that must have felt pretty good coming from Luke himself ;)
That is one very slick looking saber, very well done :)
That's a very sharp design, well done :)
Tim is very patient with custom requests... I sent him the most crappy of paint sketches and in return he sent me the most fantastic of custom machined...
Very well done, I like it : )
Another thing to check would be your solder points/joints... sometimes a weak solder joint will cause that dimming you have there ;)
Very well done, very creative with your tool setup. Nice saber :)
