Hello all,
I'm looking to build a basic stunt saber. Light only, basic bare bones wiring. This will be for a 12yr old daughter of a friend. Her birthday is the 31st and we are doing a scavenger hunt, where unbeknownst to her, she will be gathering parts to build her own saber. Hopefully she will enjoy it so much she will start to research here to upgrade on her own.
I was planning on building her a pvc hilt per Jay-Gonn's tutorial. She wants a Sith saber with a red blade. I have looked into the shop and most Reds and buck pucks are out of stock. Any advice on what I should do?
So far it will be the pvc hilt
1 in thick wall blade
Round tip of same
From there the quest for parts grinds......
If not red, what color for Sith blade? Orange? Amber?
What size battery holder for decent run time? I don't want to get her the rechargeables so she can pop them in and out and possibly upgrade on her own later.
I will be prewiring it for her so she can see how it goes together and let her take it from there.
Her mother wanted them to build pool noodle lightsabers and call it good. I told her that just wouldn't do. If a Padawan wants to build her own saber then a pool noodle just won't cut it. I cannot let her love of SW die in a pool noodle incident. Any help is appreciated. I will have to place the order by tomorrow night to ensure the parts make it in time.
Help me TCSS Forum........you're my only hope.
