I always wanted to build an ancient saber, so here it is so far... currently running a lux V cyan,no resistor from a 7.2 V li=ion pack. soon it will be changed to a lux III red-o...I'll update the pics when i get the new color in it

and this was just being silly, my 2 hilts on 1 blade without a tip, the other is a royal blue k2

I like the beat up/weathered look alot on this one. The switch is placed pretty cool too. Not much chance of accidentally flipping it up to turn it off... good forethought on that one. What pieces did you use for the lower handle such as the pommel and what it's next directly connected to?

thanks, but i just realized i uploaded from the wrong folder,i need to downsize the images and repost....DOH! the led is directly connected to the battery

Looks like bladeholder 5, sinktube cunnector x2, ribbed section, and style 3 pommel, a 1.25" sinktube for the forgrip and a 1.5" sinktube cut upen and act as a spacer for the clpam/box.
Very nice design. I like it, unfortunatly my saber design couldent incorporate any of the design.

I like the display idea with the 2 sabers on one blade. Think we can get a clearer pic?

That is a nice saber. Care to enlighten (or point me in the right direction) on the technque used to get the "worn" look.

Please...
Regaurdless, very nice saber!

this is the best i can do with the crappy camera i have... as far as the worn look, it's aluminum black finish, you can get it at gun stores,then covered in varnish to collect dirt. it's also been beaten up a bit too
