Mounting your FX Light Saber to the wall?

**DeLucks Designs** · Apr 4, 2011

Hello All,
I'm at the end of a 2 room renovation in my house(for my 4 year old twins) and my son has asked for a Star wars room (of course). I bought him an Fx saber and would like to mount it on the wall for him. This is the complete saber, and not just the hilt. I know i've seen them posted here before at some point, but I'd love to see some ideas about wall mounting your Fx sabers. Any one have pics or ideas? Thanks!

For my Vader and Maul sabers, I attached a Maglite (flashlight) wall mounting bracket and snapped it in those. Nice, easy, and affordable.

I've got this and it works nicely

Those eBay hangers have a black component that touches the blade. IMHO this spoils the illusion by making the blade look less like an awesome laser sword and more like a stupid neon tube.

If they can't design some way to cradle the tip, at least make it from clear plastic so it's less distracting visually.

For that matter do sabers have to be hung blade up for good luck or something? Why not just bolt cellphone style clip to the wall and hang it from the covertec belt hook?

On another note: How are you planning to get power to it? I'd suggest putting a 'retro fit ' box in the wall running 12v up through that and mounting the cell phone clip to the faceplate.

There is also the tried and true, unobtrusive, inexpensive option.

I wish I could take credit for coming up with this way of hanging them, but it was BoBoDohn who gets the credit for this very simple and inventive idea.

Here is all you need (different size rings can be used for different sabers), and a link to his post with the complete instructions.

I used a pool cue rack to display up to 6 lightsabers at one time.

I tried the 3M way when it was first posted and came home to find them ripped off the wall. So that didn't work to well in my case.

Strange... mine have been up for 5 years. I guess I got a good run of the adhesive.

I hang mine from a picture hook and a keyring

Any chance this method of vertical hanging can be explained with photos? The original threads photos are no longer active....

Thanks

The images have now been reattached to the post.

awesome... thanks so much!

i have draft up a lightsaber rack drawing and will start to laser cut them

its just a very simple pool-cue style design with laser engravings on the top blade holder and the bottom, i planned to use acrylic mirror as the base.

**Woodlake** · Sep 7, 2011

I used two pieces of 2"x2" plastic angle. One "leg" fixed to the wall, and the the other carved out to craddle the hilt - one at the top and one at the bottom. No support needed for the blade. The sabers simply lift on and off sitting on the "brackets"

I used the stand that came with the sabers to mount the plaques I made up

Here is a pic of just the "brackets", painted black to match the recess. The cut edge had some felt glued to it to protect the saber:

very nice display!

pity that i have 5 FX sabers and have not enough space to display this way

After seeing and hearing about lot of mounts out there that take away from the look of the Lightsaber I decided to design my own. Mine are unique in that they are very subtle but also very strong with the base part being lined with felt to protect the saber. I mainly do them in satin black but have also done them in white and metallic gun metal grey. I've made a mould for them and can get them perfect every time and they are finished off to museum quality.
