xwing, SCHWWEEEEETT! I do like that design you have there neat switch between the emitter and grip, gives it that years of service look.
Ambo, did you use the dremel or polish by hand? I forgot how cool the twins were.

James, That is actually the blade screw. No light up on that one. It's my beating stick (stunt saber).[] No frills it's just got for twirlin' and whackin' like there's no tomorrow.

He meant the transition(switch) between the polished and the unpolished.....

sorry i should have put a question mark. i changed it,better?

Yeah, now that it's a question it makes sense.
I took about 5 minutes each on each grit (for pommel and emitter seperate). I went 800 to 1000 to 1500 to 2000 then polished. As tetmatek said (I believe it was him[?]) it depends on the quality of the machining and if you scratched it up yet. The lower grits help remove the smaller imperfections so that polishing doesn't take a lifetime.

Forgive me, I find it ironic[] The Japanese swordmasters use similar techniques to polish the blades on their swords but don't polish the Tang / hilt area. We polish the hilt, but not the blade...I wonder why....?[]
