I must say, it was a awesome time to build this thing. I spent a couple of all nighters making this thing and read many, many forum posts before hand and during the build. I was planning on having this be my first and only saber build, but now that I've actually built one of my own, I can say that I'm hooked! I've already working on another one for a friend of mine and I'm drawing up one for saber staff for the future, similar in design to this one.
Thanks everyone in the TCSS Forum Community!

Sorry guys. I had a little more faith in the attachment part of the thread posting. Just got an photo bucket account in the last five minutes and well here are my pictures. Sorry again for the inconvenience.

There we go! Nice first build!! I really like the leather piece idea... It almost has an Indian feel to the whole thing

Unique and well executed. Looks comfy to hold.

Good lord! Another amazing first build! Your colour scheme is excellent, really blends the leather in well. It is obvious you spent a long time looking on the boards, and a long time on that shroud I imagine. Not only that, but a really different looking saber (IMHO) Will be very interested what you come up with in future.

Looks great - good job first time out!

Nice build! Loving the leather grips!
