I love the use of copper on this saber! I'd like to see more copper incorporated into shroud-work for sure. What is the nipple (for lack of a better word) in the middle of the emitter?

If you're referring to the small black dot, it looks like a 2.1mm recharge port that's been flush mounted.

Which looks awesome, btw.

Looks great. I was thinking of trying some copper overlays on my next project. What kind of pipe/tubing did you use?

Yes that is a flush mounted recharge port.
