Thread: Copper Vanguard

  1. #1

    Default Copper Vanguard

    Hello forums! Its been a while. recently I made a few vanguards and one in particular had a lot of changes to it and really stands on its own from the rest so I would like to share it. The original was based of an Orgus Din but after all the additions to the original it distances itself I think from that. the leather wrap is out the window and instead I did some machining and did a trans copper powdercoat which I love the richness of the color. also added a few other touches of that color in other places. Also it is has some more etching added to in on the lower grip that the other ones I made did not have. Still has a crystal chamber and a simple core also the shroud is held with magnets but has a single screw that can be used when dueling.

    Specs:

    modified MHSv1
    Tri Cree xpe2 RGrB
    3400 mah Panasonic 3.7v batt
    2w bass speaker
    machined delrin chassis
    acid etching on shroud and grip
    trans copper and black chrome powdercoat
    crystal chamber
    magnet attached shroud

    That's a beautiful saber. I like the magnet idea for easy access when you're displaying the saber.

    Fabulous. Love the color, machining and etching. Heck, I love it all. Great idea for the magnet shroud covering the crystal chamber too.
