Drill, unscrew, and file away any burrs left by the bit. Good to go!
    This is my daily dose of saber building Genius! Thanks LM.

    Paint is all I have too but fortunately you can even design customized parts from MHS builder 'templates' using it.

    I think that updated design looks really really nice and could certainly be upgraded to a lighted saber later at minimal cost.

    Best of luck with it and MTFBWY.

    Thanks for the feedback guys, and keep it coming

    I'm not sure if i really like where the red acetal thumb screw is in the updated design...just because i feel like the neck of any lightsaber should be left alone, having something there just looks strange to me. I don't know maybe i just dont know what im talking about
