"Axiom" My First Saber Build -- MHS

[ErikTheHack]

Some of you have been following and commenting on my "ad nauseum" build thread under the MHS sub-forum: Here

I've decided that since the basic physical hilt build is complete I'd move to this thread under Gallery.

I've named her "Axiom" -- I hope you enjoy.

I still have some minor pain touchups to do and I need to assemble and install the electronics:

LUX 5 -- green and US 2.5

I think the red thumb screws look out of place. Maybe switch to plain metal ones IMO.
the rest of the saber looks great

[ErikTheHack]

Thanks for the input -- Perhaps I'll refinish the "knobs". Any color suggestions? Brass or shiny copper maybe? Simple black?

[Aradian Valentine]

I would go black or silver knobs but, with some interesting washers if you can. And perhaps to different style knobs, just a humble suggestion.
Awesome Saber sir.

man that is bad A man! i love the work its very.... industrial like. awesome work i love all the cool detail and stuff. also nice overlay wonderfull first build...

BTW THIS IS MY 1000 post YEAH!!!!!!

perhaps use some brass to match all off your other brass screws. maybe you could put the brass or copper caps from TCSS over the red part, but idk how big they are or if they would fit. that is some pretty intricate and detailed overlay work, i give it an A+++

[ErikTheHack]

Thank you very much! You are all too kind

I put together another image that I thought was pretty cool: From the design image I started with to the completed hilt.

[DJMoonbass]

man you got that design SPOT ON! way to go! rock on man
