Thread: MR Vader Conversions - Red Blade Question

    Default MR Vader Conversions - Red Blade Question

    Hi guys!

    Newbie here, doing my ESB 2005 MR Removable blade conversion. I had a couple of silly questions for the experts.

    What is the best blade (for accuracy and convenience / look):

    1. Length
    2. Style
    3. Custom items (wrapping, day blade, effect, etc...)
    4. I assume it is a 1" OD?

    Thanks so much for the help. It is greatly appreciated. This is my first Saber conversion, so I wanted to be sure I got it right.

    That is a lot of personal choice:

    - Blade length will depend on your height...hold your hilt at rest & measure from there to the ground
    - Style is also a personal choice, albeit a limited one...you really only have the rounded tip & the bullet tip as options (I prefer the bullet tip)
    - Not sure what you mean by wrapping, but as far as effect (shimmer, flicker, etc.) that is controlled & depends on your soundboard
    - I have both a white blade & a day blade & which I use depends on where & when Im using it...I usually use my day blade when I'm at a costume event
    out in bright light, the white balde is used indoors & at night
    - 1" diameter blades are the standard & are much easier to find/use than others

    Hopefully this helps in your decision & I wish you luck in choosing the right blade for your build!

    I think with wrapping, you mean the diffuser in the blade... As you are using a red led (nothing else would make sence) I would not recommend the white blade as it washes out warm colours. For my saber build I am using 34 inches of the clear blade and the quad wrapped film from the store basically cellophane.

    I have the heavy duty red day blade that TCSS sells & it is awesome! Highly recommend it
