    Default TOR-ish Saber by Rhyen Skytracker

    I had several parts left over from when I was going to make a few of the TOR Jedi sabers but since several people beat me to it I only made a couple and was left with some perfectly good parts that needed to be put to use. Here is my original design and how it ended up. the slots below the switches and above the grip is where the crystal chamber will be. It will have a PC-U in the grip section, the Crystal Chamber in the slot section and the 2 14500 batt pack under the switches (short momentary switches, yes there is plenty of room if you use the short switches) Now I need some suggestions on where to put the recharge port. I may just put the recharge port in the top of the brass grip section centered with the switch.

    Original Design: (I made it while waiting in a doctor's office this week. I ended up rotating the grip section 90 degrees and moved the crystal chamber from the choke to below the switches. (I was going to use short Mace type grip sections in the slots, but LDM inspired me with one of his latest sabers and I changed it)


    Final Machined saber: (I still need to PC the groove on the emitter black then it will be done and ready to wire.)


    And of course some pics before the black PC and with some of the grips in the slots: (You can see now why I decided not to go with the short Mace grips)

    Well done. I like the slots for the chamber, the grip cutouts, and the pommel finish. Looking forward to seeing it lit up.

    Well done! Good work on the lighting too, that separation light makes a big difference.
