    That's actually a 'booster' piece (all metal) that you can buy here in the shop. I'll post a link to it when I find it.

    Thanks for the info. I think I found one that would work. Its called the MHS sleeve 1. I would cut it to length and use the activation box 1 along with the MHS sleeve material cut to length the make an improvised clamp since the regular clamp aren't sold anymore. BTW, How much would it be to powder coat the Blade holder style 16 custom? I was thinking the bottom part where it goes into the choke-like section on the bottom could be Jollipop Copper orange powder coat and the rest plain. the same with the choke style 2. Coating the top in brilliant brass and the bottom where it screws into the other piece in matte black. Maybe I would make the saber to be sold. I think the overall cost to buy the parts was close to $200+ w/out sound. I think this would be for later on when I have more money or someone wants one. I think I have found if it is possible to make an Obi-wan style saber from MHS parts. Thanks for your help.

    P.S. With another saber I have designed, I was going to use this http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/4-...oved-P454.aspx with 23 button head screws and one covertech knob on it. I was wondering, would I have to sand the screw down if I used a 1/4" socket head screw for it or could I use a 3/8" button head screw for it?

    I think he's asking what screw to use for putting a Covertec button on that sleeve?

    Thank you master Loreen. That is exactly what I was asking. And I wanted to use that connector because of the look of the screws on the grip section. I think it looks cool.

    I'd just use the 1/4" socket head screw for the Covertec button.

    You can find out how much it costs to get a blade holder PCed here

    I don't think Tim does multiple colors on the same part though, it's difficult to do.

    I was just thinking about a custom work on the blade holder. The bottom choke would be jollipop copper orange and the top left alone. He doesn't have that option so I just wanted to know.
