so as not to be dull I decided to alter a picture, this is my home made saber which is now majorly upgraded. I used a foot-long chrome plumbing pipe (main hilt), a chrome drain stopper (pommel plate), some rubber o-rings (center grips), some weather stripping (grips and stops), a few rubber screw protectors (blade intensity and length adjustment), a pipe leak prevention ring (blade emitter sleeve), a picture frame D-ring hanger (break away hanging loop) and a push button from Radioshack (activation button). With some super glue, drill screws, and a bit of time and elbow grease I came out with this near master replica looking lightsaber... then I carefully put all the guts in (power cell, equalizers, blue focusing crystal, power looping modulator) and thumbed the sucker on! *makes lightsaber noises*
J/K! anyhow, from now on when I draw my Fursona as a Jedi this is the saber you will see. May the Force be with you... always.
