An amazing build from start to finish. Full of ideas and really beautiful. Great Job...but Im sure you know that.

Jay Gon, that's really awesome. You get a great purple, all your purple sabers look really good. I was wondering if you plan on doing a tutorial on how you achieve such a great purple. Such as what led do you use, what resistores do you use for the blue led & red led, what kind of lens & lens holder do you use. It would be greatly appreciated, Thank you Darth Midian.

I believe he used a DX RGB.

Looks good Jay-gon. I loved the WIP.

Yes, I did use a DX RGB, but the resistor needed is dependent upon what your set up is....what soundboard if any, and what the battery source is. Each different set up requires a different resistor. As far as the lens goes, I always 5 degree lenses in all of my sabers, except those that use Rebel leds. Just a habit I guess.

Use a pot to 'dial-in' your preferred range/color/shade or purple.....

then meter it.. so you know what resistor to exchange the POT with.

Another beautiful piece of work. I love the Mara Jade style of saber. Thumbs Up!
