I got the OK from Tim for this.

I just wanted to let you guys know I am selling my old Jedi Tunic (about 1.5 years old). It can fit a men's size 5XL, I have lost allot of weight (now down to a...

Happy Turkey Day! May the Force be with you!

Top Middle is my vote.

IT works!!!!!!! Thanks everyone for the help. You guys rock! I should have the saber done in the next few weeks :D

I am using the switch Tim sells in the store. I have cleared the bridges. It sounds like I need to solder the wires to the right top and middle prongs. Is this correct?

OK I am kinda stuck I am wiring a Joe Jedi soundboard into a saber. I attached the latching switch to the board beneath the current button, I soldered across all three prongs. However when I tested...

I bought the MR build your own saber kit to get the sound card, now I have some cool parts left over. I wanted to make an RGB saber using the 1 watt star it came with. I plan to direct drive the star...

Hasid in most cases the two sabers are the same color. From the artwork and concept drawings I have seen when a character chooses to fight with two sabers the blades are virtually identical.

Darth Tollo and I were talking about zombies and what we would do in case of a Zombie Apocalypse. What type of zombie we would fear the most. I figured I would get your guys opinions as well.:p

Awesome. This should be stickied:D

Allow me to be blunt, like I often am.

So basically what this Johnson guy is saying is “Blah, Blah, Blah. I am a cheap bastich; that does not want to pay full price for one of your sabers. Pity...

I tried using the search but it kept saying my search was not long enough:confused:

How hard would it be to add sound to an EL saber? I know El’s run off a 9v, I don’t want to fry a board in this...

The design does look good. I am bit of a novice when it comes to switches. I think activation will probly be toughest part, you can try to approach it like some flashlights. The ones you twist the...

I just read that Gary Gygax passed. He did alot for me as a gamer, I cut my teeth on D&D. With out D&D I would have never found Star Wars RPG. Its always sad when one of the good ones goes.

Saber vs. knife? Seriously? What in the 9 hells? An explanation is needed.....

Sand the blade down, it will help and is probly your best bet. Scratch remover may be another option I am not sure...

Currently listening to a song someone sent me. Strangely it reminds me of a day at work

Awesome site. I was going to go the route of checking with Tim to get one. The only problem I can forsee is diffusing a blade that long so it looks even.

I agree with Bantha it is more of a personal preference. My saber is a bit long by most standards. The hilt is 12.5 inches with a 39.5 inch blade (i measured to the top of the shouldered tip. I am...

dude..........

Although I am intrested in hearing Jay-gon's idea

I have kicked around a Dark Jedi costume myself. Black and gray look cool, you could also go with crimson and black. You could always tweak it abit. I forgot where I found this picture to begin with...

Awesome! It's now my background on my work comp. Great work.:p

There really is no "best" its more a matter of perspective, and what you want to achieve.

Cellophane with the Corbin Blade does look very nice from what I have seen. Some people sand the blade...

I saw a guy in a 3PO costume at DC two years ago it looked good, but very uncomfortable. I am pretty sure stairs were his mortal enemy. My hats off to anyone that would/could do that costume.
