xwing helped me. He's special. :lol: (That's hard to get out of someone who's more special than over 90% of the people in the world) :P

Wow mine looks like a piece of poop now. :P

Well I made this, but I missed the chrome red part. I think this looks pretty good though, for me anyways. :P

You might need to center the top buttons yourself. I couldn't really center them.

Let's see you squeeze money out of my dad.... :roll:

Lol I'm probably the youngest person on this forum. Nah I'm not gonna make one out of graflex or heiland. Unless I get time. I might just see if I can get a MR off ebay. Will see what I can do.

Trust me, in my shoes, you wouldn't. If I ran around my school yelling "I just spent $100+ on a star wars lightsaber!", they would call me a star wars geek. :P I will see how much money I can get to...

Well I just want a decent looking hilt (Probably get Mhs or something?) led, and blade. And if I get http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/pc-585-34-1-14-x-12-chrome-sink-tube.aspx How would I make it...

hmmm does anyone here sell the whole lightsaber made of parts from the shop?

I better start saving up... Well in this link http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=22 he says he's using his led hilt kit. I looked through all the led specific products and I...

Hehe oh well. I'll look around.

Well the weight would be evenly distributed through the blade right? So it shouldn't be too heavy. I'll go find 6 pounds and see if I can swing it around.

Oh. I dunno I think I should be able to handle one of Tim's blades. 1 pound isn't that much. And I'm assuming the hilt is about 1 pound too.

what's a walled blade anyways?

Aren't the wall blades about 1 1/2 inches? How heavy are they, anyways? Yea I'm 11, but if it's not too heavy I should be ok...

Tapping means adding the screw threads to a hole. If $97 bucks is gonna kill you, split it up over a few paychecks. Several people here buy one piece at a time until they get what they want. It's...

Lmao the most basic saber with everything I need is $97. Oh and what's drill/tapping a hole? Aren't all the pieces already drilled?

oh ok. For the emitter he was talking about, I couldn't find anything 10$ except this: http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/pc-636-31-screw-on-el-blade-holder-style-1.aspx but that's for EL

I better start saving up... Well in this link http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=22 he says he's using his led hilt kit. I looked through all the led specific products and I...

Wow it's amazing what sabers can cost. I already have some hasbro sabers. They're fun to hit people, but they lack the "authentic" feel. If I make a single blade saber, would it be possible to push...

Sorry. I'll go read the faq and look around. I'll come back and ask if I still have questions.

Alright that clears things up a bit. But I'm looking at almost 100 bucks for a basic saber. Does it seriously cost that much for a saber? A complete led blade costs 30 bucks, basic electronics pack...

My dad should be able to help me with soldering.
For the leds would I be getting these? http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/pc-778-23-luxeon-v-star-green.aspx
Are those leds or what? I'm so confused...

Hmmm alright. What would I need to make a working led saber? And how should I design the hilt to fit all the electronics?

Thanks. But what would I use for the blade? It's gotta be transparent for the led to shine through. And could you point me to someplace to start?

Thanks.

Hmm I was thinking about making a double blade saber similar to the one on bigyellowbox saber #7 but I was gonna change the design a little. I'm probably gonna use some sort of metal tube for the...
