Alrighty, so I'm a poor teenager and made this kitchen sink saber hilt:
This is a 1 1/2" sink tube with a 1 1/4" plastic (chrome finish) pop-up drain. Grip is kinda crudily put together with old wiper blades and electrical tape, but eh I'm satisfied. It's about 25 cm, or 10", long. The 'button' hole is a 1/2" diameter (I think) with a 1/4" gap in the base-plate at the bottom
My question to you all is whether or not this setup will work with a
Lux III LED electronics kit (4AAA batt. pack),
a 1 1/4" sink tube blade holder
and a 1" OD Corbin style battle blade, double wrap. (36" long)
I've look through a LOT of the build/tutorial threads here, and I still don't feel confident enough to buy those three things. I'm worried mainly about getting the battery pack and the blade to fit, but I might as well clear up the overall question first. I'm also a little worried about being able to properly machine/solder all the appropriate pieces. For instance, instead of soldering the wires together could I use wire connectors (the little plastic caps that have threading on the inside).
If there's anything wrong with buying those parts for this, maybe I need a different or new piece, or I've got it all wrong and I'm way in over my head, please please please let me know.
P.S. I don't mind if you give me advice without pictures, but please don't get technical with a hole bunch of electrical lingo... links to what I need are always nice.
P.P.S. I also realize I posted this in the wrong thread... although I am asking if these parts are right.... Anyway, if a mod/admin sees it fit and is gentle I would appreciate if this was moved to a thread more suiting.
