    Nothing looks out of place or missing.
    We all have to start somewhere. The journey is all the more impressive by our humble beginnings.

    This hobby is definitely adicting isn't it?

    Looks like a good list so far, if you're interested in doing a chamber/chassis, you will probably have to seperate your main body into smaller pieces. Use a couple double female extentions connected with the 1/4" double male connector, that way you can lock the chassis/chamber in place.

    Take a look at my build, it should give you some ideas on how to intigrate a chamber/cassis into your build.

    I've only built one hilt so far that isn't a single piece. I don't see any particular reason it would need to be any other way, it all depends on how your buttons, etc work. Greenfield made a saber that the entire inside comes out of!

    Actually, I just finished the saber It's very cool! I had/have some chassis problems because I can't get the chassis out of the saber... Even though we (My father and I) dremeled the edges of the chassis away... I can get the chassis out somehow If I need too, but I am totally fine with the settings Ive changed yesterday. I want to thank you all! You have to know I just got 13 years old and had no soldering experience whatsoever... Without your help, I couldn't have made a saber at all. So THANK YOU ALL

    Actually, when hitting the saber on top it is possible to get the chassis out... I am finished with the saber at first time but I chose the wrong RICE port, which doesn't fit into the box. So what would be optional now: Get the RICE port (I don't really want to, because the serial wire is hard to find and very expensive here, in Germany.. ) But cosmetically I want to improve the saber too; I planned to get some black between the three "rings" on the Blade Holder. I'll get some pictures of the saber right now tomorrow
