Thread: MHS Builder update?

  1. #1

    Default MHS Builder update?

    Hi all,

    I wonder if the MHS builder will have new parts like Tsuba, curved extension, etc? Would love to be able to play around with those parts.

    Also, another thing is that when I pick the powder coating option, I only see the solid option down the list (when all the part is colored) and I cannot see styles option. Is that only me with my browser? or it just not available anymore?

    Thanks for all the answer.

    I don’t believe the style options are currently available.

    I was making a few sabers, and found I used pommel style 1 & 2 for all my designs. However I think I read somewhere these were originally for baton handles or something. Nowhere obvious on the builder or in store do I see it say they aren’t compatible as a normal pommel. I really like the idea of the end of a Saber being a single hole sound vent and more rounded pommel and also a bottom/end switch could be kinda funky. So can these two pommel styles screw to the end of a MHSV1 Saber?

    Everything in the Saber Builder is compatible with MHSv1. Those two pommels were the originals used in the first MHS parts TCSS made, hence their numbers. Now there are other versions of the same pommels used for the tonfa handle parts and the MHSv2, but the ones in the Saber Builder are all MHSv1. When you go the actual TCSS store website, all the parts are organized so you know what version of MHS your browsing and buying for.

    Hope that helps

    The present Pommel style 1 and 2 actually came out after several of the MPS pommels - the original first MHS versions around 2005 or so were solid with no holes at all but similar in shape to MPS pommels 4 and 5 as well as a solid rounded one similar to present Pommel style 1 and a solid 'stepped' one similar to the Anakin ROTS prop endcap. They were very heavy and old timers had to drill our own holes or use sound venting elsewhere on the hilt. I still have a few hoarded for 'reverse sound' and 'stunt' sabers lol but the modern MPS and holed present Pommel style 1 and 2 etc. are much more convenient and work very well as normal pommels with other MHS v1 parts.

    I know this thread has been quiet for a while, but I was wondering if anyone knew of any plans to update the builder since there have been several new parts added to the shop.
