    Default My first sink tube build parts list

    Ok, so this is my first attempt at this, here's the list of parts I have, I am planning on upgrading it later on with recharge port and sound board, but this is all I could afford for now. I just want to be sure I'm on the right track

    Luxeon III/V Lens Holder
    Luxeon Collimator Lens 10 deg viewing angle
    Seoul P4 (White)
    SPST Latching Guarded switch with silver button
    4AA Battery holder
    2 MHS to 1.25" sink tube adapter
    1-1/4" x 12" Chrome sink tube
    1-1/2" x 12" Chrome sink tube
    26 gauge wire (Black)
    26 gauge wire (Red)
    3.3ohm 5w resistor
    Screw on LED blade holder style 17

    Do you already have a Covertec clip? I see the button on your list, but not the clip itself. Unless the button is just for looks and you don't plan on hanging the saber from your belt?

    I assume you will be ordering a blade later? Is that why I don't see a blade retention screw on your list? You might want to think about at least ordering a safety plug, if that's the case, so you can still play with your saber and not worry about blinding yourself, or anyone else. In which case you will need the blade retention screw.

    Everything else looks good, to me.

    So, it looks like you going to be doing a shroud with the 1.5 sink tube with maybe a cut out for the grip to show through?

    well I got the Screw on LED blade holder style 17 for the shroud, I figured if the heatsink/blade holder for the sink tube was only a few dollars difference might as well pay the extra for it. And yeah I 'm doing a cut away with the 1.5 for the grip design.

    Oh and no I don't have the clip yet, I'll get that down the road with the other upgrades I plan on doing.

    The heat sink/blade holder for the sink tube is not on your list, you have 2 of the MHS to 1.25 sink tube adapters. Your blade holder screws onto one of those.

    You can't use the sink tube blade holder and a screw on blade holder together.

    sink tube adapter holds the blade holder and the LED stuff perfectly

    haha no I mentioned the first one cause I was saying the price difference between that, and the style 17 blade holder I got where not that big a difference so I got the style 17 not the sink tube blade holder.
