Would a solution be to let the JB weld partially dry before attaching the magnet?

Ah, thank you. I tried checking the resistor chart, but it doesn't have Rebel stars on there yet. :)

What resistor would one use for a White Rebel with 6v from four AA's?

Thanks a lot! Sorry for so many questions, but what did you use to file down the hilt? (I'm a total metal noob)

Wow, thanks both of you, very helpful stuff. Sunrider, for your saber, was the attached magnet already curved to fit the hilt, or did you have to mod it to fit? Also, would you happen to know where...

That's one of the main problems. Finding magnets strong enough to keep it secure, but not too strong as to make it overly difficult to remove.

I was wondering if anyone has ever played with using magnets instead of covertec (or D-rings, etc) clips to attach their sabers. I was thinking that, for an upcoming costume, if I just worked in a...

Well, since this thread's been resurrected, there's still no chance of these blades coming back, correct? (specifically the black)

Quick question on this subject: can you slide sinktube over a hilt with heatshrink on it, or is the heatshrink too thick?

Indeed. What I'm asking is if anyone bought extra tubing that they will sell, or if any other sites have ever sold the same kind of thing.

Hey everyone,

I recently found the colored polyc and am really bummed that it all appears to be gone, though I could have sworn that more than "Solid Silver" was in stock several months ago when I...

That's awesome! Thanks for the link!

Hey everyone, this should (hopefully) be my last question before actually starting construction of this saber, but I'm torn between two shroud designs (again). So, I come to those who have more...

Cool, thanks for the advice.

Hey all,

I just ordered some electronics, but while I was trying to pay, PayPal kept giving me errors, so I went through the manual checkout. That seemed to go through, but now the order status is...

For the heat shrink, where would you recommend buying it?

@AKRM: That looks pretty cool. Do you know how well the adhesive sticks to a metal hilt, or should I just use the adhesive to hold it...

I see...thanks for the insight. Any ideas on an alternate material?

Hey everyone,

I was wondering if anyone has had any experience using Plasti-Dip to make grips with. I was first looking into 1.5" heatshrink tubing, but then saw someone recommending this product...

Even though I agree that the Mando-Jedi concept is dangerous territory, if you want to pursue it, there's a couple cool drawings a guy on The Dented Helmet made that could give you some ideas.
...

Do you think it would be worth the effort, or would it be more practical to just use something like an O-ring?

Question here: is it possible to attach very thin pieces of shroud onto the main hilt, and if so, how? It's for this saber:
...

Does that only apply to gloss colors? I'm considering getting my emitter PC'ed, but I would be getting Flat Black.

Ok, very cool. Thanks for the help!

Hey TCSS members,

I was wondering if the chrome sinktube sold on TCSS...

The red and gold reminds me of Iron Man. Excellent work. :)
