if you can spring for it. Id get the 400 xbr series. theyve got the most versatility and attachments, and since i got mine (thinking just for saber sinktube shaping) Ive found a dozen dif uses for it. hell I regrouted my bathroom floor last week with it

ok ill look into the series and see the price diffrence when im there.

now do O-rings fit over sink tube?

and also if i use sinktube for my hilt how do i get the activation button to stay in there?

Just drill a hole where you want the switch. Any switch you buy should have a nut that you just screw off, stick the switch through the hole, and screw it back on again. make sure to get a switch where the nut comes off on the side of the switch button and not the back where the wires are. Trying to reach 3-4 inches down the tube to screw on a nut will make you use every cuss word you know plus inventing a few.

Also, i always put my switches in the pommel cause otherwise, if you plan on actually using the thing, it WILL get your way. You can't do the cool looking one handed turn on from a natual grip, but trust me it's a lot better in the long run. The cool looking activation boxes and switches in the middle will drive you nuts when trying to fight with it.

O-rings definitely fit over sinktubes. If at home depot just go to the section where they have toilet and sink repair parts. In that aisle, probably by the faucet hardware there should be o-rings. Size 18 and 17 are the ones that fit the best.

And dremels are what you make of them. Mine cost $20, is variable speed(you want that) and has lasted me just fine for a year now.

well as far as the O-rings go they dont have ones that are big enough its wierd but they didnt tehy had way to big or to small and they sold them in groups of all sizes so ti was like 2 bucks!

so you think i should add my activation button to the pommel? wht about speaker?

im probably gonna invest in a dremel then cause it sounds like ill need it.

and i got a apprentice!!
