SATOR - MHS based, CF7.5 + CEx

[Derro Kuspin]

Hi!

This is Sator (that's Latin an means 'father' or 'progenitor'), my first saber. I already posted a gallery thread over at the Fx-Sabers forum, so if you saw it there - sorry, nothing new to see here...
It's part of a father and son set. My son's saber is called 'Filius' and I posted it here in the thread 'interim saber for my son'. Filius was finished first, but Sator is my first project.

On to the specs:
