So does anyone with a Obi-wan saber not have an MK3 flange.[

] Granted they aren't with blades, but again they just don't work well with electronics.

the only obi ep 4 saber i have is just the belt prop. i started off with a mix of resin and metal parts. now i have replaced all the resin junk with metal parts. so i have a all metal obi ep 4 saber.
i'll get some pics of it if any want to see it.

and if you were to make a el version of it, the neck would be closer to size. just a tad bigger, not near as big as one made for led with a 1 inch neck. but those MR obi pics, still look sweet. i think i could forgo the thicker nect in lue of turning into a led convertion.

I should tell you, the MK3 Flange is not the same part that was used for Luke's saber in ROTJ. A few stunt versions used it, but all the "hero" props were machined.

Luke's emitter has a flat top, with none of those "holes". It also has a shortt cylindrical piece at the top.

I'll use the new MHS emitters as examples:

Obi-Wan:

Luke:

These pics aren't exact by any means, but they do illustrate the differences.

yeah, the lukes was a similar style to obi's ep 4 emitter. instead of the ring of holes it had a pipe like protrusion where the blade came out of.

Would you still like plans? I have a blueprint of the whole Luke saber that I could dig up.

I uploaded it to my album. These plans have been around for a while.

I could CAD it too so that it's ready to be milled too if you'd like.[
