This is a GREAT Mod, if i can get a Joe Jedi kit I'm trying this!

[Blazemann]

HOLY ****!!!

Sorry... Really excited... I just turned my MR FX LCS into an incredible US LCS!!! Removeable blade! Thankyou for number one, thank you! I can now exchange my old short blade for a normal sized one! And soon, when I get the switches, I will do what you did!

Also, just something I would just like to add, the inside parts on mine, was a lot better glued than yours, so I almost turned back...

Just a warning for ya'll bout' to try tis', it may take a little prying to get peices apart.

[Blazemann]

Oopss... Shoot, I need help. When I slided out the inner part of the core hilt, I forgot to press in the button, and its innerds are in a scramble. Can you please open your saber, and open the white power button so I can tell where to put the tiny peices to make it fit/work again? Please do it, and hurry.

[DarthFender]

Sorry Blazemann,

That switch was not designed to come apart. I think you might have just borked it. Man that sux. I did the same thing on a Joe Jedi I was planning on taking the board out of for another saber. The good news for me was that I was planning on using a DPDT switch anyways. But, yeah. I think you might be SOL.

[grayven]

Oops!

Yeah I did that the first time too. I'll try and get some piece of that this week. It was a pain in the butt but it goes back together. If you take a close look at the switch you can see how it works. The white activator only goes in one way and the metal pieces just kinda fit in place. Remember down is on while looking at the pieces. And don't lose the spring.

I have also modified the bottom hilt pieces to be the same length of the upper pieces. I used the pieces from the kit I bought just for the soundboard.
And this is what I got now

Grayven,

Awesome, that it goes back together, I didn't look at it too closely as I was needing to disable it anyway.

Blazemann, let us know how that turns out for ya.

[TorLinWaDur]

Wow. niffy stuff.

[Blazemann]

Yes, this is very good news! Can't wait for pics!

How many metal peices are there supposed to be on the underside of the whit button?
