    I messed around with using drawer handles from the hardware store a while back.


    You can get different sizes, shapes, colours. And you could probably mount 2 or 3.

    i made them for my saber using steel cut out with a dremel and welded them on, but i have no pictures because i took the prongs off due to stabbing myself in the hand all the time []

    i am a nerd, if you don't like it, i will cut you with my lightsaber

    you can always try machining the metal out of sheet metal and anodizing it

    Edit- or use Stirene,

    Cutting it out of polycarbonate sheet might work.

    This company currently has some polycarbonate stuff on clearance, I'm not sure if this stuff is or not. (Btw, cool design, I hope you find somthing that works!)

    <font size="3"><font color="blue">Styrene? You obviously can't duel with it, then.[]

    Or maybe you don't do a blade and it's just for show and a belt hanger version.</font id="blue"> </font id="size3"> []
