Well, it's already been said a few times but I just gotta throw my two cents in. Absolutely love the pommel. It's always fun to see something off the beaten path.

Nice. I always enjoy seeing another Do-Clo saber. Just when I get my ideas for my next saber set in stone, one of these fine pieces of art comes along and shows me how dumb my idea really is. But...

Wow. That's a very clean looking saber. Something about it just looks very real. It may be the fact that you made it in so few pieces. I can't wait to see it all painted and finished.

U.S. Army. Airborne Infantry. 8 years today. Every bit of it in the 82nd Airborne Division. Currently in Afghanistan on my fifth deployment. Come to think of it, maybe I just travel for a living.

Yeah, sorry for the incredble vagueness. I try to be a little better than that. I am going to use a Vader FX board and homemade chassis. It's still very much in the conceptual phase so that's just...

Just out of curiosity, how much more space would be required to use this hilt style with sound? I know it sounds kinda stupid, but we all have our reasons.

I REALLY like the grip section. I've been toying with the idea of having that done myself. If I do I'm sure that when I post there will be something about the switch installation pains and I expect...

Let's not forget that at one time even Boba Fett used a lightsaber and confronted Vader with it.

I seem to remember that in GL's story the Mandalorians were extinct as culture. Boba Fett was originally just a bounty hunter in Mandalorian armor. It wasn't until the EU that he was "officially"...

you could just say make a cardboard blade and rim it with EL wire and then laugh when they post pics

Thanks a lot. This is exactly what I needed.

Alright, time to see who can be the first to make a "black" lightsaber. This topic alone should make for some very interesting site discussion and vicious "noob" bashing

There's really no reason it couldn't be a lightsaber. With the long standing animosity between Jedi and Mandalorians I am sure many sabers made it into the hands of the latter. This could be from a...

Well, I am a fan of doing the impossible so here goes. I want to use the gold plated AV switch. The issue is i need a latching switch as I am building with an FX soundboard and Tim doesn't have one....

Thanks for the great comparison. I can't wait to see the green as that's what's planned for my next build.

Ouch. Well, now you have extra parts and that means a new lightsaber. You know when god gives you lemons, get a new god.

So this is apparently a freak happening. That's good because in my slightly inebriated state when I first read this, it caused some panic. Thought the yoda I bought just to gut might have been a bad...

I'm really glad you posted this as I am about to use a Hasbro Yoda for sound in my next saber. Any ideas on another fix, or is omitting the yellow our only hope?

I go for the PT. I like the way that the sabers tend to reflect the individual user rather than whatever could be found to work (as in the case of the CT). Still, the EU has some good ones such as...

Well cardcollector, after that last post I checked out your Lightning Strike". I really like the chamber you did on that one. I may try to go in a similar direction. I want something very dual-worthy...

Using the windowed MHS extension. Thinking about mounting it on a spare MHS heatsink with a hole through the center. Read that on here some time earlier. Seemed pretty straight, so hope it works.

Good point, Sunrider. Maybe I should also ask for cheap, easy to acquire and install ( I am a dumb grunt, so I mean REAL easy to install), and durable alternative lighting methods. Other than the...

I agree with all. Sweet saber. I really liked the less than usual placement of the choke. This saber is just plain fun to look at.

Dude, aside from building half rate lightsabers, I also do custom firearms work and one of the best pieces of hardware you can own is a table vise. You can get a cheap one for around 20 bucks at...

I'm thinking of doing a crystal chamber in my next saber, but this would be a new concept for me. As some of you have extensive experience in this area, what is a good LED to use for a crystal...
