Short story: Cool, yes. Easy, Heck no! Going to happen, no.

Longer explaination: You can't machine curves without great expense and machinery out the wazoo.

There are however ways to pull it off. All of them use existing sinktube or PVC pipes already curved. These can then mate with already existing parts to make a curved/angled saber.

i figured that much. im sad now. i wonder if there are sink tubes anywhere that will match somewhat with the lightsabers..... advice?

i thought i'd save him the trouble

Xwing got it. it is easy to do a curved saber with a little ingenuity. just get a U bend pipe and then cut it to the angle you want. then two of the MHS to 1.5 inch adapters and you're set

now to be more obnoxious im going to ask where i can get a u bend pipe! haha.

[Lord Maul]

hmmmm, maybe a HARDWARE store
something tells me you aren't very old to not know where to buy a piece of pipe

[chase]

it was a joke, note the "just to be obnoxious" part.

we get so many stupid questions around here like that, i thought you were serious
