New Saber Main Body Advice

[jdubzw]

Hey all, I'm looking at putting together my first saber, and I'm really partial to using 2 extension pieces for the main body instead of one singular body piece. My worry though is the fit.

What I'd like to do is pair the 3.7" ribbed piece (http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/MH...sion-P245.aspx) with one of the 5" fluted extensions (maybe something like this: http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/5-...ctor-P404.aspx).

Has anyone had experience with how the 5" or the ribbed sections go together to know if that's realistic or not? I had originally planned on using the MHS Speaker Mount V6 (http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/MH...kers-P892.aspx) using a battery holder to switch out 18650 cells and a Pico Crumble. I'm just wondering if that'll fit because I can't seem to find a height measurement on that specific part so I'm just not sure if that'll fit in there or bump into the switch.

My other concern is the switch. The switch would fall on the 5" fluted extension in the middle of the saber. It looks like it's going to be REALLY close to the threads... maybe too close?

I was thinking maybe I need to just go get a piece of electrical plastic pipe and creating a piece to hold things a little tighter and maybe just put the battery holder in the ribbed area instead.
