You do amazing work, and I can't believe that the hobby would be as advanced as it is if you hadn't had the foresight to open this shop.

In this hobby it always pays off to make it JUST the way you want. Good luck!
As I thought. Thank you!
Hello!
I wanted to play around with some MHS v2 in the MHS Builder today but don't see the parts there.
Am I missing something, or are they just unfortunately not entered into that system yet?

Whenever someone posts "custom MHS" with Tim's help, you know it's going to be good. I love the switch placement on this blade holder. Did you design it yourself and then ask Tim to execute the...
Welcome to it! Happy sabering!
Hah! Saberhood. Totally stealing that one.
I love seeing creativity, seeing new builders getting excited with their creations, and seeing the support of an enthused community.
This post has all three. Keep it going, PhoenixHawk!
This is why I love TCSS Forums: you all answer questions for noobs before I even read them, making my job just to sit back and surf, which is fair since I have asked more than my fiar share of noob...
I love the industrial, gritty look of the color and components. Really nice concept.
Two possibilities as well come to mind, if I may.
1) If you are trying to fit MHSv1 chassis discs into an MHSv2 hilt, they certainly won't fit.
2) Depending on the MHSv1 piece you wish to house the...
Whatever you end up doing, make sure you insulate the board electrically.
You probably know that attaching the board to this battery holder is not at all an ideal setup; there are other chassis...
Here again is a little saber I put together from hardware store parts.
This one is a stunt build with a 2-die Cree XML B/G for cyan.
It uses a 16-gauge aluminum tube as the base and has brass...
Congratulations. That's a real work of art and a very unique concept.
All right. Thanks!
Hello, all! I was just wondering if we plan to do a Saber contest either this year or next. It's always fun to see what people come up with, and I have a few ideas myself I'd like to try. 14452
Welcome to it!!
I usually scrub parts with a fine Brill pad and some heavy duty cleaner like Greased Lightning before etching. Maybe do that before plating the Aluminum. I and cruelly need to get back to playing...
Hardware sabers ROCK!! Well done.
Yep. I'm a BIG fan of copper and love the plumbing sections at hardware stores. If you figure out a good copper-plating solution, I hope you'll let us know. The attempts to coat MHS aluminum for...
That looks good. And good on you for building your own; it's so much better than just buying a production-line saber or installing some off-the-shelf hilt.
Good luck, and let us know if you have...
You've helped me so much that I take your words as a great validation of my years of practice. Thank you for saying so.
Thanks for the kind words, y'all.
The saber is fully functional for heavy dueling...
