that luke rotj looks damn guid if you tell me how to post pictures i will send in pics of my luke rotj so we can compare the MR one to the custom made 1.

We all can find pics of the MR luke... it's not like they're a super exclusive that only 10 in the world own.

I also told you to look in the FAQ... or even searching would yield the topic on pictures that came up in the first weeks of the forum.

Thanks!

I can tell you all that's inaccurate about it...

1. Not enough ribs.
2. Ribs are too fat.
3. Recessed groves are not supposed to be "V" shaped.
4. The diameter is small.
5. It's too long.
6. There's no ring behind the Activation Box.
7. The Pommel is not proportionate to the body.
8. The color of the emitter is wrong.
9. The emitter is incorrect (Tim has a more accurate one, but I like this one better)
10. It has a Recharge Port.
11. The silver ring between the Ribbed section and the Emitter isn't big enough and it's on the part. (It's on the emitter not the Ribbed section)
12. It has a movie accurate ignition.

And that's just comparing it to the MR version... But this is about as accurate as the MHS parts will get (excluding he emitter) and maybe closer than Tim might like. (But there's 12 reasons to tell the man to GFY )

But this is my pride and joy. Very expensive project that took a lot longer than I expected, but I now have a scratch built saber that I can be proud of and I am very pleased with how it turned out.


Edit: And by "the man" I don't mean Tim. If you don't know who I'm talking about don't worry about it.

I would find bigger ribs better than the MR fx ones because on the MR saber, the ribs hurt my hands if I hold it long enough and the activation box takes up most of the space on the hilt where you need 2 grip it so a longer hilt would be more efficient. infact, your hilt seems 2 be more efficient than the MR. is the blade detatchable?

[Firebird21]

I find this very comfortable to handle. And the added space at the pommel makes it easier to handle for both balance and hand grip area.

The biggest problem I have right now is that "Key". I havn't gotten around to making a good one yet so that contraption in the pics is what I'm still using and it can cut you if you're not carefull.

Yes the blade is detachable.

that luke rotj looks damn guid Very Happy if you tell me how to post pictures i will send in pics of my luke rotj so we can compare the MR one to the custom made 1.

Bad Slang! And really! Read the FAQ before asking how to do a basic something before asking how like a gazillion times!!!

(By "my luke rotj", do you mean an MR? ::sigh:: )

I am getting pissed by this guy/girl...

[Angelus Lupus]

maul and elrond getting annoyed? I've not been here that long, but even I know that's not a good sign.


Damn, I just realised this could be considered off-topic postwhoring... wont do it again.
