    Default Calvary Custom Sabers Presents "S.T.E.V.E." A Double PVC Saber

    Hey Saberland!

    It has been a while since I posted a new saber, and almost didn't post this one, but since it is a double saber and has some cool stuff on it, I decided I would.

    So, I built this saber for me with the intention of beating the crud out of it. There is no bling, or fancy designs on it. The most important thing when building a double bladed saber is to make sure it is perfectly balanced. if it isn't, then spinning one is very... difficult. this saber is balanced right at the middle O'ring, so it spins quite well.

    Some Specs...
    -Heatshrinked 1 1/2" PVC Tailpipe grip section.
    - Flush mounted Basic Switch
    - 2 BIN 1 Lux III cyan LEDs
    - Secured Anti-rattle battery pack.

    Here are some pics and a video.





    This blade pic is in full daylight indoors...

    Here ia a video that goes into the saber in great detail....


    And Yes, The lightsaber Stand is made entirely of LEGOs...

    Awesome saber- kinda like mine (in progress) with the 1" PVC and the 1-1/2" tube (mine's metal, though.)

    And I also made a stand out of LEGOs...but it was for a LEGO saber.

    Looks really good. I like the black grip area. At first, before I watched the vid, I though you had "turned" them to get that effect.
