You won't be able to stack your board and battery, so end to end they are going to eat up around 4 inches of your internal space. Then you have to consider the 3 resistors, wires, speaker, blade depth (typically 1.5-2"), heat sink, switch, recharge port and so on. I think you are going to find this a pretty difficult build. Space gets eaten up very quickly in standard size hilts. At 8.5" (theoretically 6.5" minus blade holder) 1" ID space will be gone in no time. Not discouraging you, just pointing out facts.
