    Nice looking chassis but a rough looking surface even for an sls prototype. When you get it is it a model you send for printing or is it a fully printed part?

    thanks...fully printed
    It is a bit textured but I like it that way...feels sturdy as well...keeps everything nice and neat in there, TCSS has th standard discs and rods to hold everything in place, and it works well but I like the originality of this chassis and comes with a kill key that you just turn as an on/off switch...not necessarily having to pull out the switch entirely.
    you still have to do some mods like drilling holes into the grenade section so secure the chassis onto the saber itself.
    check out this link for more info and a crystal chamber chassis version which looks like a lot more work: http://imperialroyalarms.com/post/72458

    I was looking around to find a real graflex glass Eye plug so that the light shines though it...but wow!!! is it $$$:

    and the replicas don't shine all the way through...so I think I came up with a good alternative by using an oil level sight glass instead!
    I know I would have to drill the hole large enough and thread it to accept whichever size but it seems like a cool idea

    Thoughts?

    Clever! Are you going to keep it hexagonal out are you going to round off the corners?

    You have the exact same parts as me. What resistor did you use? I am getting conflicting info.
