Thread: My first "little" customizing.

    Default My first "little" customizing.

    Hi,
    This is my first attempt at customizing a lightsaber (just the hole in the blade holder). I don't know the techniques and materials that are usually used to achieve various effects, whereby one evening I improvised ...
    With copper wire made from an electronic component I created a "spring" that I entered into the final part of a plastic bottle (fortunately the same diameter of the blade). Then, one by one, I bent and positioned a radial of small pieces of copper on the edge of the plastic.
    Tell me what you think.

    Thanks and hello from Italy!

    Thank you so much! Create and customize a lightsaber gives endless possibilities and it is a shame that here in Italy there is a culture of "model" (as we call it) for the lightsaber, as well as widespread as you!
    I am really happy to have discovered this fact even at age 43 (which in some respects is better appreciate the results that are obtained).

    Bye!
