well, I tried the tweezers, and ended up breaking one of my solder connections. So I am going to go the C-clip route. I am going to cut out a section of my sled that the PVC C-clip will fill in...

I might end up doing that, honestly. I basically have the three wires left disconnected until I get this thing mounted. I didn't want to drag the board through all this trauma. I'm giving it a...

I have the TCSS speaker, I need to clip off the old one, but yeah, the TCSS version is definitely getting installed once I finish this recharge port business.

I saw the recessed recharge port...

Thanks, Knight!

I got the soundchamber sanded down and lined with some scrap cloth. Used some Goop.

I could have done final assembly yesterday, but we got stuck with the recharge port.

Hey all,

This is my first saber project, I started it last March or so, and it's been on hold for about a year, now.

I've updated the battery system and built a sled, sound chamber, and...

Hey all, I've got all the parts for this build, with some Li-Ion 1850's ready to go...have for about a year, now.

However, every radio shack I go to has the 5v regulator that is the 7805C model,...

if you want a cheap soundboard, get a 2010 hasbro "Clone Wars" saber. They're 16 dollars, and they have a few sound and light effects.

take apart the saber and steal the card. It also gives you...

man I spent over 20 just on the battery pack for this thing :p

the plastic saber and resistor were less than $18 with tax. The 5v regulator and transistor were 3 dollars together.


Also when...

eh, I really don't like the look of that stiffened hood, makes it look more like a high necked pauldron.

J-lo:

Short for who? This is not a face character

man I've re-linked that top picture 3 times or so, and sometimes it shows up the right size, and sometimes it shows up HUGE, and the picture is sized properly, but when it's linked here...it just...

Okay, finally got better pictures!

cheness cutlery usually has pretty cheap tsubas. I would not consider them fit for actual sword use because of how they are made, but they are cheap and readily available.

Also you can usually...

double post since it's been awhile and because I am slightly altering the build.

Okay, I already knew that I still needed:

Pommel insert 12 (the cool new one)
Cannon 2.1 male for charging...

the reason it looks so loose in that picture is because I had to get into it myself, and I can't zip up the back all the way without help, nor can I close the mask all the way in the back.


the...

I'm sure you'll do fine!

It looks like you breezed through the interview process and got a really fast call back.

Good luck with the final decision anyways, and you know the old saying:

"If...

thank god for that. You mando mercs might have had to sabotage the delivery truck if he was had been able to order one :p

Very little pay, but a lot of honor, preventing that image :p

Then...

#8 is really nice, it came down to my top 3 for voting, but I am a bit suprised that it has SUCH an amazing lead. It is very nice, but there are many others on par. 2, in my opinion equal it.

when I originally wore it, it was Halloween night in Vancouver, Canada. That wasn't too bad. Yesterday for the new pictures? yeah it was hot, but not as bad as most of the star wars costumes...

If those armor overlays are on a working hinge, you could easily fit the recharge port under there, so you lift up the armor to charge it, then remove the plug/ flip it down when it's "live"

I...

it's hard to place, I was born in 84, so I grew up sort of in a star wars lul...but there were the paper back books, the movies, the X wing and TIE fighter games (and X wing vs TIE fighter), so I...

yeah there were two errors in the costume when I received it from Moon Costumes...the makers.

1) it was too short, way off the measurements that I sent.

2) the mask was attached and it was...

Just wanted to show you guys my deadpool costume, my girlfriend mailed it to me from her parents house, where it debuted at a local Con last October.

There are belts and harnesses that go with it,...

That mando armor is really cool, and it seems to fit a lot of eras.

It sort of reminds me of Jango's armor in that is isn't beaten all to heck and back.

(I know, I know, Mando tradition...have...

agreed. I narrowed it down to a few but I had to bring in some outside opinions from friends and family before I could make a final decision.

Really tough choices everyone. Blue ribbons for all!

wow, it looks like my post stating that this thing is like 7 dollars on amazon got deleted.

I guess I was soliciting in countering his..solicitation?
