Thread: Saber Question

  1. #1

    Default Saber Question

    So I'm getting a saber built by a good buddy of mine, he likes to machine his own stuff. Is posting stuff like that allowed. Will be TCSS element designs though so you might recognize some parts. I think you guys will dig the design though. For now its going to be a rebel white led. Already have the blade done myself. Thin walled blade at 34 inched with round tip and out my own cellophane in. He used QD's though so I can change colors any time when they are re-stocked which I hope will be soon because I'm wanting a regular Rebel blue led. Like he's not copy righting just being inspired by some of the designs basically but the whole hilt is all MHS capable so I can change out parts whenever I want too so I'll probably be using my pommel from my first build forever ago. But thanks for the info on that =] Will be posting pics right when MY saber gets here. He did some cool shroud work on it too. Hasn't posted any pics for me yet though, teasing me about it :P He has his own machine for aluminum stuff so plus for him. Its just a standard stunt but I might upgrade to sound later on since there's plenty of room it seems like

    Sorry if this is in the wrong section though. Didn't think to post in general hilt building :P Move to appropriate area if you wish to

    Feel free to post sabers here. MHS, custom machined, hardware sabers, etc, all are welcome.
    We all have to start somewhere. The journey is all the more impressive by our humble beginnings.

    I will right when she comes in ;o Shouldn't be long now, just needs painted on the main body and electronics put in and I'm set. Hoping my buddy uses quick shipping though because I'm super excited to finally get my own saber again :P And fully detailed this time too. I think you guys will like the overall design. Very heavily Obi-wan inspired too which is what I liked about it :P

    Dang getting 3 of them. Must've forgotten that :P One will be empty though so I can do whatever to it, the other 2 will have the white leds for now until other colors come back in stock. They can only handle the rebels though. Hope those come back soon

    Yup. Can't wait to get it. Also getting me a Starkiller inspired one too with the white led but red wrapping inside the blade. Thought that was a cool idea :P
