Nuff said :)

I've searched and searched...but have been unable to find a schematic layout for the clash sensor sold in the store. I'm trying to design a clash flash system similar to the one Novastar described...

Indeed, a most excellent manufacturing system Tim :)

Coo :)

Just was wondering was all, not trying to be all OMGGIMMIESOUNDCARDNAOOOOOOOOO lol

Maybe this should be part of the wish list, but I noticed a thread where Tim stated that TCSS was working on a sound board of its own. I was just curious as to how progress was coming.

Thanks :)

Other problem with copper is that it corrodes very very easily...and not just from fingerprints. Getting it wet at all and not properly drying it can lead to green pits all over your saber.

I...

Hmmm...

My first thought is that the broken solder pad on the speaker caused it to go bad when you turned the saber back on in the hilt. Repairing a pad is tricky at best, most of the time it's...

The shroud will be the nearly the entire length of the saber, so I'll have to use some sort of accent LEDs. I didn't get a chance to test the acrylic this last weekend...too much stuff to do. ...

I have one of those extensions on my saber. It's ID is much smaller than a regular MHS piece. A 4 AAA battery holder will fit inside it...barely.

My main concern with using 1.25" sink tube is getting the sled to fit. I am set on using a US 2.5 powering a Lux V (or equivalent Rebel). That will require me to use LiIons to power it, and a PCB...

I personally got a pair of street motorcycle boots for my sith costume.

Other than that, you're basically looking for a calf high boot. Most recommendations I've seen for Jedi boots are to buy...

"Commander Cody, the time has come. Execute Order 66."

The delivery of this line gave me a little shiver...at least Lucas didn't screw up Palpatine's dialogue TOO much...

Ah ok, thanks.

I'm probably trying to do something entirely too complex for my second saber...but if I can pull it off it should look good. Just picking brains :)

I was referring to the rings specifically. It looks like they are uniformly lit, which led me to believe there was some kind of material added to the BH to direct the light from the hole around the...

Thanks for the heads up...closes down an option, but tbh I'd rather gnaw my hand off that voluntarily play with fiber lol.

btw that saber in your sig is amazing *drool*

I just saw what Lord Maul did...and that is simply amazing work. I replied to his thread on the DS-1 so hopefully he sees it :)

Other than that, I found some 1/32" (.03125") thickness acrylic at...

May I ask what material you used to achieve the emitter glow? I'm currently kicking around an idea for a raised shroud that would be backlit, and I'm debating the best way to do that.

Audio hisses like you're describing often are generated by an induced voltage of some kind on the wires running between speaker and audio source, or by a faulty connection at either the speaker or...

I hate to say it, but besides the other great quotes here I have to pull one from AOTC. I think I died a little inside typing that...

Thanks for the tips guys, I decided to move this discussion to the general hilt building section since we're not talking sound anymore and I wish to avoid mod wrath :)

I've been fiddling with the design of my second saber quite a bit, and I've hit a bit of a wall that I'd like some suggestions on. I've decided to do a shroud for this saber, but with a twist. I...

Sorry if my warnings about using flux made you shy away from it. Flux is a valuable tool and very necessary when soldering on circuit boards. Here's the thing...

Most circuit boards (like the US...

Well...

Like I said above I'm planning on doing a raised shroud off the main body of the saber. I was concerned that the 1.45" outer diameter of the MHS parts combined with the shroud being stood...

I'm facing a design quandry...I want to do slightly elevated (ie on small spacers) shroud pieces and I'm concerned about overall saber diameter, and I'm debating using a smaller diameter sink tube...
