While spray adhesive is a perfectly viable solution, I actually use good old fashion Elmer's glue sticks.

Personally I like to use a glue stick to hold my template's on. I always had troubles with taped down template's sliding around once I started cutting and the edges coming up on me. Then when...

It's pretty easy to get the S shaped emitter. Just Google Graflex template and you should be able to find a printable design to wrap around whatever you decide to use for your shroud. Then just cut...

I don't know what you planned on using to cut your sink tube shroud with, but if it's a Dremel, then you will be able to cut the MHS sleeve material just as easily. Well I suppose not exactly as...

Actually the poem is from the Green Lantern comics. Each Lantern Corp has their own chant they must say when recharging their power rings, and this one is the Sinestro Corps'. The Green Lantern's...

I must say, I really like the color scheme. The trans red turned out amazing. I've been contemplating a few different schemes to add some color to my next saber, and I'm now totally inspired to...

The blade plug was made by fellow member ARKM. I've got one for each of my saber's cause they are, in my own opinion, the best looking solution out there.

As we all know, the search function is an amazing tool, and many people need to learn how to use it a little more. But no matter how familiar you are with searching, there are still a few flaws with...

In brightest night,
Beware your fears made into light.
Let those who try to stop what's right,
Burn like my power... Sinestro's might!

This is my third build and second personal saber. I...

I'm definitely a big fan of the leather grip, it does make it very comfy to hold onto. My only complaint with it is that while the beads add a nice stylish look to it, they really get in the way...

So I actually finished this saber back in March, but never got around to posting pictures of it. I wanted to keep it nice and simple since it was my first build, so it's basically a screw...

I don't have a very high end drill press, that's why I was more interested in using a counterbore bit. I believe my max rpm is only around 3100. Plus after doing a bunch of reading on using endmill...

Since I don't own or have access to a endmill machine and I want to flush mount a switch that is the same size as an anti-vandal, I was going to purchase a counterbore bit for my drill press. My...

So I've finally managed to save up enough money to start my next saber and I'm pretty stoked about this one. While searching across the internet one day, looking into all the different designs of...

So I was down at my local Walmart today picking up a few things and I noticed that they've rolled back the prices on their force action sabers to $16. I thought it may have been a local store thing,...

Yes J-Lo, I did notice the comment on my resistor value error, but if you notice I edited my original post that already stated I had realized my error with the resistor.

Caine, thank you for your...

I've got my LED leads from the board running to the coil of the relay and then the switch part is connected to the positive of the P4 and the positive directly from the battery pack. So what you're...

I've finally got around to wiring everything up for my first saber tonight and everything went pretty smoothly. I'm using a 2010 Obi Wan Hasbro board and a relay to fully power my P4. When I wired...

I metered my Obi Wan board last night and I got 30ma with the negative's all spliced together. This was off a 4 aaa pack with fresh batteries.

Azryel highly approves of the saber that stole his name ;)

Crap.... I think you're right, the whole momentary vs. latching thing slipped my mind.

So I finally got around to wiring up my first saber last night and everything went pretty smooth for the most part. My only problems were with the relay I was trying to use. I couldn't get it to...

This is quite possibly one of the funniest thins I have ever seen. Very creative and very cool.

I'm pretty sure it's the swing sensor that's attached to the brown wires. When you move the little plastic assembly that is attached to the end of the brown wires around, you can hear and fell a...

If I were to wire an led on a AV switch into this board before a relay would I want to splice all 3 of the negative leads together and connect them as one to the negative post on the switch in order...
