    JJ was there suppose to be a pic that went with the

    "Now thread your heatsink into the blade holder."

    Also just for future reference make it so the wires drop down through 2 of the cutouts on the led instead of wrapping them over the outer edge. I think it works easier that way.

    Other than that it looks great and I will move it soon. Can you E-mail me all of the associated pics please so I can host them.

    ill break it down, take the extra pics (realized i need one of the hilt finished without the blade in it) and re align the lux wires. btw im really impressed with the heatsink/blade holder design on this one, it would be a great idea to work into mhs.

    I had to move some stuff around as your pics didnt mesh with the text. Let me know if you see anything out of place.

    so the new metal blade holder section, once the copper slug and led stuff, is screwed up inside end, just butts agaainst the lower MR section, and you slide the whole thing back up unside the hilt?


    also, could you drill and tap holes on the slug to use nylon bolts to hold the led down like all other setups? or wil it not clear or something?

    i wondered, cuz if you could, withoput any problems, i would do that when i get around to doing mine.

    I think with the threading it just mashes everything together, so you don't need the nylon screws.

    If you are worried about that a drop of hot glue, silicone or whatever will hold it from backing out. I doubt it will though.
