    Havok, Great looking hilt. Dude, you didn't waste anytime. That's awesome. Thanks for the props. I like that end cap your using for the pommel, That's flipping cool. I'm going to have to look for those. Dude, that really is a great looking hilt. That is going to look great with a red blade.

    Updated the button holder, and angled the emitter .

    Thanks for the compliments everyone,

    I like that button holder. This saber is going to be awesome. What switch do you plan on using? If its one of the AV switches, you'll have to use another piece of pvc on top of your button holder with the AV switch bezel. That's what I did on DJ's saber to get the switch to fit. May I make a suggestion? I would put 2 red o-rings on your pommel between the end cap & the female connector.

    Red LED did the trick!

    Looks awesome now.
    Though I think that you should paint the lower white tube to gray or something..

    turned out well, i would add some Polyp to your blade to even it out though, other than that....solid work!

    when is everyone gonna starting moving onto METAL hilts?

    not that your saber isnt cool.. I think you did a great job..

    but metal gives it more of a 'reality' appeal..


    not to mention working in PVC is very forgiving.. bump your skills up a notch and start working in metal..

    OUch!

    Well metal is something that I do not have the tools nor money to work with right now. PVC is cheap and done right, looks great. Granted my dremel-FU and sanding is up to Darth Midians work on his sabers, but everyone starts somewhere.

    These sabers show all the new sabersmiths that there is a cheap alternative to metal work.

    Yes the metal sabers are nice, I prefer PVC.

    MY SABER MY RULES!!!! Mabye Ill make the next one out of a baby bottle and pipe cleaners

    WHAT ABOUT THAT SMARTY PANTS!!
