Yup. A little notch for the thumbscrew to bite into does it good.

It's just the name of the letter. Like we have names for letters. Ay, bee, cee, dee... etc. You just take for granted that letters have names, but even the roman alphabet we're used to is read...

Partially true. Some colors appear "brighter" than others simply because of their wavelength, but intensity (lumens) is more related to the height of the wave and can be affected by separate factors...

Yes, it's perfectly plausible that one could just happen to find a wormhole under their kitchen sink. ;)

Interfacing might help with the bunching. It makes the obi a little more stiff.

"It's just a flesh wound!" :lol:

:lol:

Sorry I missed it. Stupid family obligations. ;)

The input for most of the Hasbro boards is 4.5VDC. So... not really.

Some boards (the Obi-Wan) you can push 6 volts, which would probably work.

Little bit of Blade Runner in 'em, too.

Raw metal tubes in aluminum, steel, copper, and brass available there.

If you want other colors, paint or anodization is the only way to go. If you meant the custom...

Alas, I will be on the road and headed in the opposite direction on the 6th. Someone drink an extra beer or two for me. :wink:

I think it ever registered on the meter to begin with. :lol:

Nice boots!

(Funny, I never noticed his boots were different in the movie... *trades in his browncoat*)

I think that head, while not the same model as the originals, could actually make a neat and unique-looking custom saber while still maintaining the flavor of the originals. Good luck with your...

The new dynamics sound really sweet, especially the swing pitch-shifting. I like that the harder swing will actually sound harder now. And it sounds like the new idle hum shifting will solve that...

It's an interesting concept, but I'm not sure it would sound quite right. It's not just a pitch shift, there's also a doppler affect that gives the saber swing its characteristic buzz.

Actually,...

Tell that to the samurai. Most katana are shorter than that.

My blade is 32" locked into the hilt. I meant for it to have roughly the same handling as a katana (it's still a bit too long when...

I'm in. I loves me pritty green flashlight.

That's funny. I did notice a strange excess of loud static when I was turning the volume pot with an all-metal screwdriver... I was worried it was a short or something. I guess I'm just not on the...

I like the red on white, but you could go with black on black with the logo outlined in white. I'm not sure it would look right as a simple white-on-black. I can do up a version of the logo like that...

Fruuuuity Oaty Bars make a man out of a mouse.

Fruuuuity Oaty Bars make you bust out of your blouse.

Eat them all the time... let them blow your mind! POW!

*cough*

That's the Fruity Oaty...

The term highlander is for folk that lived in the highlands... the hills and mountains. The highlanders tended to be thought of as more wild and uncivilized. There were some clans that were wealthy,...

They were meant for chopping the legs off of armored horse, never for one-on-one combat.

Belinos may be thinking of the basket-hilted claymore, which is just a broadsword. The term "claymore" was...

What he meant is that only the Obi-Wan board has the motor built-in. On the other boards, you could instead wire a motor to the lamp outputs to get the same effect. There's not really a use for the...

That would be a red filter over a red LED, similar to what xwingband just described (cyan is blue + green, a blue filter would decrease the amount of green in the cyan). Other than that subtle...
