First of all, Well done! That is some cool looking hardware. Plus, I like that you got them from a website that sells them as "Healing Crystals" and you put them in a lightsaber....anyway
I have one suggestion for an improvement. At the moment, it will appear as though you have two crystals that are lit up in the hilt. It does look badass, BUT, what if you made it look like the lightsaber beam were actually passing through and over the crystals? I have only a vague idea of how to do this:
Use a thin-walled tube of polycarb with a
small amount of cellophane wrap inside. Place this tube over the crystals and, when lit up, it would appear as if the crystals were in the path of a weak beam (due to the small amount of cellophane) and that, after the crystals have "focused" the energy, it becomes a strong beam (i.e. your blade leaving the hilt). Or, you could forget the polycarb piece and just wrap the cellophane around the crystals. I have no idea if this would work with a laser light source though....anyway, there it is. Do with it what you will
