I'm planning to put together a polished brass sinktube and MHS saber, and this is what I've got so far:
I found these already polished brass extensions at a home improvement store called Menard's. At the time they were on sale for $3.50 each, so I picked up a couple. I thought they'd make it easy to install sound by using the slip jointed end end as a pommel with a strainer added for a grille. Now to just get the rest of the parts from the store....
