This is for a friend of mine, and they don't know about it. This is a design that has been in my head ever since watching Madcow's long chassis video. This is my first attempt at a locking chassis saber.

Build List:

1 of: Custom Tri-Cree LED
1 of: Panasonic Li-Ion 18650 3.7V 10A 3200mAh PCB Protected Rechargeable Battery
1 of: Acrylic Chassis Disc for Recharge Port - S8 (Clear)
1 of: MHS speaker mount V4 - For 28mm Speakers
1 of: MPS Clip
1 of: Chassis Disc style 5
2 of: Chassis Disc style 3
1 of: Hilt Style 5 (7" Fluted double female threaded connector)
1 of: Gender Changer
1 of: 1.2" Double Female

Stuff I had to source elsewhere:
S2-R3 Soundboard NEC
Brass stuff from Home Crepot (washers, air hose connects cut up, etc)
Common anode RGB LED (for parallel chamber)
Railmaster 28mm speaker
Quartz Crystal

She's in! Ready to install maybe Friday.


I have some more work to do to tighten the crystal a bit. I modified the chamber slightly from what you see here. I have air hose fittings for my Crystal holders on both sides. Wiring will be very tight, especially from chamber LED to Main LED, may just keep wires separate, and double them up on the pads. That would probably make life easier. I am planning on 3 accent LED's on this as well, at least 3 somewhere in the chassis, maybe a couple in the RC Port area, couple on the board area, I don't know. I need accent LED's!
