I've soldered wires before and felt pretty comfortable but there's something deathly difficult about getting these friggin wires from the switch/resistor/battery to melt into the tiny Luxeon solder...

Great! Just what I was looking for, thanks everyone =D

Directly re-posted from FX-Sabers.com:

I was wondering if I could custom-order a few parts from the D.I.Y section for some sabers. Namely I have the LED's and instructions needed but require the...

I've heard that converting a Yoda FX to a Luxeon is a really bad idea because it's weak. I just got my hands on a Yoda though and I think I'll be following your disassembly too.

I'm really...

Thanks all

Alright, so I'd love to place this order for all the parts I'll need for my tonfa project within the next day or two to have some parts to play with during Christmas break while TCCS is closed up....

On a game/online community called Second Life I've designed and sold lightsabers that fully 3d characters can use in virtual combat. Animations, texturing, scripting, the whole nine yards. I had some...

...That's damn impressive. Kudos on your work Arkai!!! How did you achieve the light-up hose?

Thanks for clearing that up Maul. Uncleared is a bad idea then?

I'm VERY interested in the black too. Is it possible to leave it uncleared for texture, possibly even "battle damage"? Or only paint parts of some pieces like the ribbed sections of the extensions?

Don't know if your idea is still hot but I've got a very similar one. Using MHS I think we could pull off a tonfa using a steel or even chrome threaded tee.

Blah! All of them? Does he have a contact I could reach him at? >.<

Just threw together a rough draft of what I've decided upon - all MHS parts!
I still need a tee from somewhere and I had this idea that if I inserted it between the two knurled extensions' male...

I feel your pain =/ Ah well, I'll cross my fingers then

That's a great idea! For sound, I think I can hook myself up to some Force FX boards but what batteries should I use to power two 3w Red Lux?

Bleh! Any word of a new batch date?

I've been looking at picture after picture after picture in these forum and have found ... too much inspiration! Too many ideas are going through my head! Here's my goal:

I'm looking to...

I think I saw that same piece of metal at Home Depot and was going to use it as a base for two curved hilts by cutting it in the middle. I think the curve would be more useful that way, around a...

Do we know when v3.0 will be released or if there's a waiting list? After watching Novastar in action with his earlier versions I'm absolutely dying to get my hands on one myself.

On...

All makes sense to me, thanks for your input guys!

I stumbled upon this website awhile back but only recently found it again. Now, a Luxeon is a class 2 laser but what about using actual beam lasers for a blade? From what I've seen, the benefits...
