I am compltely new to this so please bear with me.

I want to build a custom saber using mostly MHS components. I also want to custom make a decorative shroud similar to the parks sabers model M2. I do know from reading some threads here, that the sink tube will slide over the MHS parts. I am, however, very curious as to the wall thickness of the sink tube. I don't want it to be so thin as to present a cutting hazard. I also have seen a saber that was made in a similar fashion, it looked great except for the very ugly
unfinished, unpolished copper interior of the tube. Are your tubes plated copper or steel? If they're copper I'd rather use steel or aluminum. Also. Is the sink tube
tight enough to shroud the MHS components without using an adapter. Lastly buy definately not least. Which is better EL or LED??????
