    Default MHS Sith saber

    Here is my recently completed MHS Sith saber. *I was aiming for a regal-esque feel to it, like the sith knew how good he was and aimed to show it through his weapon. *It is MHS based except for the pommel which is from Acerocket. *It sports a P4 red, MR Vader sound card, a 3.7 li-ion in hilt recharge, pololu board for momentary switch use. *I also added 2 Presta bike valves, the lower valve contains a 5mm purple led that is on when the kill key is removed, the upper valve has a 5mm white blinking led that is in sync with the main led. *The double male adapter has holes drilled all the way around the ring, since the pololu board has a small red light on it to show that it is on I positioned the board so the light would shine through the holes for an imitation crystal chamber. *As soon as the video is done processing the youtube video will be linked as well.

    Very nice build. I really like the dark tone of the entire saber. The accent leds kind of throw me off a little though.

    This a very nice looking saber. I really like the double male adapter to look like a crystal chamber.
    Well done.

    Looks good - I like the idea of valves for LED holders. Its great how everyday parts can be turned into something else.

    cool color scheme. For me, those big accent bezels take away from the saber, especially with the switch sitting flush.
