Thread: First Saber build

  1. #1

    Default First Saber build

    Hello! This is my first complete hilt with electronics. This was also my first time working with sculpting epoxy (I know it looks a little rough). I wanted to go for a more organic look which I think I accomplished.

    I used the TCSS sink pipe blade holder as well as the basic LED kit with Red LED. The blade is 36" poly-carbonate. I am beginning construction of it's {near} twin as I will wield dual shoto blades.

    Take a look.

    Yep, I think it's cool too. And it also reminds me of a mummy hand.



    by the way, I fixed your quote in my post. Took out the extra "e" from "remind" and put it in "jewel" where it was needed.
