backwards saber

[AEwizard]

I think i saw something on one of the threads that if you do a backwards saber that it will create stress on the pommel? Here is a screen shot of what im talking about.

So.... i think this will work...

with the fluted body you're fine. using the main hilt style 4 you get stress and run the risk of breaking it while dueling.

Thank you. I appreciate it.

Uhh, how is this backwards?

And you are not going to put stress on the pommel...there is no way that can happen with that setup...and MHS parts aren't going to snap while dueling. If they did, I would have done it already.

the main hilt body is backwards - the switch end towards the pommel and the end that's normally towards the pommel towards the emitter. it's been stated elsewhere that reversing the style 4 hilt body is not recommended because the metal around the threads is thinner and weaker because of the grooves and can possibly snap the part off if you're using it like Caine Drathul or Novastar. ^_~

but the part pictured is the fluted body and that's perfectly fine.

thanks again

And now Caine Drathul kind of wants to test that theory out...
