What not to do to MHS parts

[jin starkiller]

I had a friend/ client ask me to create a lightsaber out of the fiasco that he managed to create out of MHS parts.

what he did was use a pipe cutter on the main body to try and make grooves on it ( first very bad idea and mistake)

Then he tried putting the extension over main body and i guess tried to force it all the way up to cover the gauges he made on the hilt section. what he accomplished was to put a v in the threads that i hat cut the threads off and install a 1.5 sink tube adapter

To all the new people if you don't understand how MHS works or what to do with your parts have a sabersmith build you a saber

ok i am done venting
