    Default My Wife's New saber...Hematite

    Hi all been awhile since I posted here, and thought to show off something I just finished for my Lady (I was amazed she wanted me to build one!) I had a PC 1.6 I bought last year, had some bad luck with it, got it repaired and then stuck it in a box. She started mentioning wanting a saber to learn dueling with and something to have fun with in the back-yard on summer nights. She had in mind a certain color, originally Cyan was the choice with an Amber FOC. I wanted to use a new Tri-reb in that I have done a few other builds with them and they are bright and work well in series for running 2 dice. I ordered a Royal Blue, Cyan, Amber from Lux. A new blank hilt, did a little machining to it, made a custom control box and had my PC guy powder-coat it in Black Chrome. The font chosen was Dagobah (Thanks Lord Blako!) And my Lady loves it! She has Officially named the color "Electric Blue"

    Thanks! Actually I owe the idea to ARKM, with mine, I used my compound rest on my lathe for the long center point, it also has a quartz crystal with brass fingers inside of the plug

    After having done some research on this style of blade plug, I find myself wondering which of my male friends uses the round-head style of electric razor!
