Okay, I changed the photo hosting service. Let me know if the pictures are still not showing - I can see them fine from my machine. Thanks.

I use a sharpie marker to draw a straight line - it will wipe right off. Then, I use an awl to "dent" the location. That helps keep the drill bit from wandering. I always start with a small bit,...
The red LEDs is actually offset on purpose. Three green LEDs are lined up and the 4th (red) is slightly offset. That is the one that blinks whenever the Master is on.
Those LEDs were a pain to...
Sorry about that.
I went ahead and added links to the pictures underneath each one. Guess I'll have to link them on a different photo site - seem to only have problems with Picasa. ;)

I posted a few photos in the MHS gallery. This is the MHS saber I built last year. It was my first MHS, and I decided to go all out. I managed to score a CF 2.6 to go with it. Of course, the...

Try searching for Pipe Hangers or Pipe Brackets. There are various types, and I have seen some "Universal" pipe hangers that you may be able to use. I know I've seen 2-piece brackets that make this...
That's the beauty of polycarb blades - you can put yourself out of your misery right on the spot!
Oh, and whoever suggested the Mac font - won't work. Since the Mac's don't crash, it would be a...
I like the "Windows" theme - the windows "Ding" on clash!
When I ordered my CF last year I e-mailed Erv with a couple basic questions on the schematic. He answered promptly with additional suggestions. When I assembled the saber, I did sweat. But I love...
Yeah - I had that problem too. I have so many LEDs in the base (one of the side-effects of the CF boards) that I had to put the batteries in the ribbed section. I think I ended up with 6 different...
