I've always loved that emitter-style. Looks awesome.

[jin starkiller]

thanks ever since lightsabers from the big yellow box i can't stop using it ..looks unique compared to other emitters

[xl97]

maybe take it up a notch..

use hex head screws and then use a smaller diam. drill bit to drill 'through' the hex/screw stem...

this will let light through the holes.

do it for both top and bottom?

or maybe just every other one? to keep some 'strength/support'.

They also make vented socket cap screws that already have a hole through them. But they are comparatively expensive at ~$1.00 each.

[jin starkiller]

thanks for the information ....didn't know they made them with predrilled holes through them will have to look at that for the next time i use this style

personally i think you should stick a ring of older solar cells around the emitter. it would give it a nice fresh electronics age bit of flare.
