Thanks for all the help guys! The saber's been done for a few weeks now, and I'm finally getting around to posting pics. I posted my pics and summary of my build here.

Ok guys! After all the help I got from this forum and my good friend Chad figuring out the wiring, here's pics of my first saber "Divergence". I was going for an 'artifact' feel - something you might...

Awesome, thanks so much! I think I'll go the etching route then.

Thanks guys!

My wife wonders now if it was the latex paint she used that was the reason it came off a bit with the decal mask. Would an enamel or Krylon do better for that application? And Gerry,...

Hi guys!
Got my order in, and my buddy and I have begun building our sabers. My handle will be wrapped in leather, and to cap the end of the wrapped areas (top and bottom) my plan is to cut rings...

I have since seen it other places on this forum, but always in a complicated mess of posts. I'm not sure if anyone has it working the way I'd like. I would...

Hey everyone!

My buddy and I are doing research in preparation for our first saber builds to go in costume for Episode VII. We're leaning towards sink sabers at the moment, but we're open to...
