    My first saber with sound

    This is my first saber with sound and my third ever build (non-PVC). I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. I even managed to solder to the NBv3, which for a guy with Parkinson's was a challenge...

    I need to figure out how to keep the blade stable inside the 1.25" sink tube. It wobbles a bit. Sand down some PVC and glue out of sight inside the emitter?

    How was this done?

    Yessir, I read that earlier in the post. However, I'm still curious as to why that works better. My guess would be that the 410-420 nm is too close to UV light to be very bright? Thanks for the reply...
