Most excellent work! Looking forward to seeing more.

The good thing about your grips is you've utilized screws on the top and bottom portion of them. So if you arn't to keen on them nearing the completion of your project you can always change them as...

I work as a telecommunications cable repair tech, and we have some circuits that are in excess of 100 volts on 26 gauge copper. so a mere 7.4v i'm sure won't be an issue for this application ;)

Not sure if i can direct you to a place to buy those as this is connected to Tim's shop and i do not want to step on any toes, as it violates the terms of use for the forum... But it was a random...

This in my opinion (which may not mean very much ;)) is the best crystal chamber i have ever seen. The way everything seems to flow together seamlessly, I couldn't picture this saber any other way. I...

thx crystal - I am hoping to find smaller bits to add to this once i figure out how i am going to mount the rest of the stuff, meaning soundboard, batteris, etc. And i love your sabers, Mantis is one...

Again thank you to everyone for the kind words, and opinions. Today after work i decided to bore out my fins a bit. This was the best i could do thus far to shorten the distance between the 2...

A smaller crystal is definately somthing i have been trying to find that will slide inside the fins a little better. the only problem is the hole i have where the crystal comes out of can't be...

Yeah i did realize this, the problem was the crystal was too fat for the fins, and it didn't nestle into the circular parts to cradle it like i had intended. Just a mock up thus far of what i am...

Hello all - Been a while since i have posted anything new. I was hoping to enter a saber into the TCSS saber build competition, unfortunately due to work and other personal issues I didn't have time...

Thank you for the comments Jay, greatly appreciated. It's just ridiculous how easy it is to scratch the chrome while shaping the grip windows or when boring out the switch hole. You don't have much...

great paint job, and that is super bright. Excellent work :)

Great saber Jay. Really like the design you have going there. The black is broken up nicely with the chrome and aluminum colors. Box placement and shroud are excellent as usual. Top notch.

thank you for the kind words - Cheers mate

Hello all -

New to the saber scene. Strangely enough i had no idea that saber building was a hoby. After randomly stumbling upon a PVC saber build from intstrucables.com (great for random DIY...

Allright cool. I am still going to use latching switches for the majority of my builds for now, just curious for future reference. I guess i should go and read over the terms and conditions of...

Just a quick question. In my ignorance I wasn't aware that Momentary switches weren't compatible with the Master Replica boards unless you add a Pololu. Anyways i just want to confirm that this is in...

Aahhhh. well i was pondering polulu and how to wire it to an MR board and found jay-gon's Bane saber using the polulu board. Figured it would bump, and your right i should have just started a new...

Just curious if anyone can direct me towards a good place to buy Polulu boards to convert the Momentary switches to Latching.

Yar, well just placed my 4th order. Good grief, have enough to make approximately 4-5 sabers now. With any luck i will have a couple done in the new year. A lot of room for upgrading with Accent...

yeah i just realized not to sure why i put that p in there. Anyways, thx so much, and yes i prefer the circle over the dot as well. And yes the wiring is almost identical. Placed in a some what...

Tim's diagram was very close to what the windu board looked like. and i mixed...

to be honest i never did find an actual Mace windu soundboard diagram, so i have had to refer to multiple ones and kind of mix and match to find what works. I am going to draw up what i have now. To...

I have a buckpuck 1000MA that i can use. Can i convert the momentary to a latching using this? I found some momentary to latching modules on youtube. Not to sure exactly how i would have to wire it. ...

Hey, new to the saber scene currently working on my first saber. All of this information has been great, but i seem to have hit a small snag. I used this diagram to wire up my DPDT Momentary switch....
