Modular OBI

[tetmatek]

Here's my latest Modular build up. I've always loved the Obi saber so it was a priority of mine to build somthing as close as i could and Tim to da rescue! The only mods are cutting grooves in the rib section for that grenade look. The clamp is one of my replicas that crossing my fingers will be available soon as a kit and by it self for custom applications. Now I'll paint all the pieces and fit it with a MR sound board and blue Lux 3w. Let me know what you think. I'll post some pics now and after painting the parts. The only thing I need to push it over the top would be the pommel. I'm going to try and modify a Luke ROTJ pommel to look like the Obi. I think i can machine the angled section athe top to resemble the correct one. Well here it is[8D]

That is awsome Tet! Making the ribbed section like that incredible. Look forward to seeing that finished up.

Looking good, tetmatek!

I look forward to more progress pics.
Are you going to give a high mirror polish, or leave it with the machined look?

Tet did the mod on the ribbed piece.

Today i got all the electronics installed and running. Inside is a MR Anakin powered by four AAA batteries to a 3W Luxeon LED. The Grenade was modded by me on my machine. I am sure Tim has somthing in mind like that or he does now.lol I'm thinking of polishing the emmitter and semi gloss blac on the body. I'll leave the clamp chrome. I am not sure how I'll install the switch. I want to use the correct bubble on the clamp. Any ideas out there

You could always mount a switch like they have on the MR Luke on the side of the switch box.


EDIT: Woah....beating James to the punch.....no way.....hehhhehehheh
