Yoda conversion?

Wow, only about 8" long? That IS a tough conversion.

Could the shroud be used for an additional blade retention screw? I mean as far up as it could go, plus another screw near the bottom of the blade where it met the heatsink/emitter/holder?

I've used two blade screws to secure many sabers from BOP I--for added safety... maybe it could work.

Thoughts, Strydur & X?

The last time I seen someone do a review on the yoda they said the shroud is very weak and bends easly.

I would be down with a 3/4 conversion. Is it possible to get a complete blade thats 3/4 instead of 1?

I'd take one as well.

That's a large picture.

I thought about doing something similar. If nobody minds having the emitter stick out farther than stock then I would be open to doing a kit similar to this.

I think It looks fine the way it is. And when i get my Yoda Im going to go thru and show how to open it up without wrecking the sensor. CAnt wait for my Yoda, cant wait for my Yoda.....
