I would be forever thankful for that :-)
Amazing, thanks!
If only the Fotos were still online...
Is there any way you could upload the photos in the initial post again?
It currently says "photo not found".
Thanks for sharing your idea. It might be just what I'm looking for!
I really love the aesthetics of the saber.
Very clean, very elegant.
Activation switch done! This was huge to me because it required to most amount of work (meaning filing, sanding and drilling) on the hilt itself. I am not too familiar with that kind of work.
I will...
I have worked on some more little details today.
For a long time, I had the idea of putting a circle like spring inside the last groove of the ribbed section as some sort of vent in the area where...
Thanks very much, guys!
I figured the best place for the switch would be at the front end of the deep ribbed section. In order to fit the tactile switch holder ring in there I had to cut and sand...
This has turned out to be more of a long-term project.
Since the last post I have ruined a NB board, ordered a new one and repainted the parts with spray paint because I didn't really like the...
TCSS seems to stock many parts again now, so I was able to place another order for internal parts.
In the meantime, I spent some time with the finish:
11570
11571
Just some little updates here.
I have ordered a blade from SaberProject and drilled and tapped the hole for the blade retention screw - first time, pretty exciting!
I found some parts to build...
Awesome addition to the design!
I think a bit of brass would be neat.

I did a 1:1 internal drawing of the hilt today to see how much space I actually have for the parts. As I posted earlier, I want to try to get a CF7.5 in there.
I was hoping for some comments from...
Thanks San Tala!
I am currently trying to find the time to make a detailed internal drawing to see how much space there really is. Rough measurements suggested a CF7.5 would fit but it would be...
Wow, looks great! Thanks for all the comments!
Alright, thanks!
I see your point :-)
Hi guys,
I was wondering if anyone has any pictures of a Green/White colored blade? I was thinking of doing that in my first saber for the main blade color and have an additional red for FoC.
So...
Hi guys,
I am in search for a Graflex style clamp. It doesn't have to be a real one or a 100% accurate replica.
The only one I found was on eBay for around 65$ - which seems rather much to me. If...
So we (my friend is building one too) picked up the parts today and I wanted to give everyone who's reading this thread a little update.
But first of all, because I was reading through this thread...
Would you share your weathering technique?
@Forgetful Jedi Knight, sorry, I meant the other direction right up the hilt :)
Stunning! I love the attention to details paid even for the parts you cannot directly see.
Beautiful weathering, as well.
Just a little update on this thread, parts are ordered!
The stop of powder coating during the winter months slowed down the process a little bit and now that Powder Coating from the Custom Saber...
Very cool design! Are these all MHS parts? I am wondering what the part right after the ignition knob is.
This is really bad news...
I don't understand why they aren't just adjusting prices to to control demand.
Thanks for the clarification regarding the number of switches needed, that makes things a little easier.
I think I will figure out where to place the switches when the basic hilt parts arrive and...
