    Default The Forge

    The Forge is named after the saber builder who inspired it. Saberforge made a similar looking saber, and I liked it, so I made a similar one. This is my first aluminum saber. It has a royal blue rebel in it, and an ultimate fx sound board. I'll take some more pictures with it lit up soon. Special thanks to Rhyen for the ultimate fx wiring. Saberforge for the inspiration, and Darth Midian for the copper cap LED assembly instructions. Hope you guys enjoy. Edit: Added pictures of it lit up below
    Aluminum hilt
    4 AAA battery pack
    Ultimate FX sound board
    Rebel Royal blue LED
    1 inch thick white polycarbonate
    around 30 inches of cellophane wrap inside blade

    I used the copper cap LED assembly. Shown by Darth Midian here http://forums.thecustomsabershop.com...-for-PVC-hilts.

    Very cool. Saberforge does great designs, but I'm always disappointed with the final product. Good job.
