    I pulled apart a broken $10 crap lightsaber. Though its made of plastic, I really liked the design on it. I want to see if any of you can make schematics for the design in MHS.

    Fiddle with this and you should be able to come up with something. You'll need to do an overlay for the ribbed bits.

    Since I've never seen an explanation on it, how do you attatch overlays?

    Depends on the overlay and the design of the saber. Small overlays can be attached with epoxy. Larger ones are usually held in place with screws, switches, etc.

    You will need to buy MHS Sleeve material or sink tube to make those three "ring" like overlays.

    Very nicely done vadeblade. I wanted to see how people would attempt to make it in the MHS builder. This may possibly be my next saber build.
