Hey, all! This past summer I've been working on a ROTJ Obi Wan saber. I used PVC for the hilt, and TCSS parts for the blade and electronics. I?ll update the thread in the next few days as I finish some details, such as the emitter and pommel. If you think of other angles you'd like to see, I'd be happy to oblige.

Here's the set screw that holds the blade on

Couple of questions: first, how would you guys recommend painting the pommel and emitter to be reflective chrome? Would leafing or mylar film work? Second, where's a good place to find an economy sound board? I'll eventually buy a crouton when my budget allows, but that'll be a while. I've checked ebay and amazon, but didn't have any luck finding something less than $30.
