Hey thd9791 ! Now it's time to start the other side! Puzzle-fitted box and all. ;)

Hey redbutton ! A little paint stripper, some Birchwood Casey Brass Black, a bit of pipe on one end for a bit more handle, some fittings with tubing running out of the side holes, and a rod poking out of the end and you'll have yourself a proper looking proto-saber!

Thanks neophyl ! I hope it won't be too difficult to learn how to design a 2-layer circuit board. I basically need a switch, and button holder. I don't know much about Gerber Files, but I see they're vector based. With any luck I can use the layouts I created in Affinity Designer 2 as a...

Hey Gang! I thought I'd bookmarked a link to a program for building your own circuit boards, but I can't find it. I remember someone on one of the lightsaber forums was making their own ciruitboards and that they were made on purple substrate. I'm pretty sure they were produced at Osh Park...

Hey Anakins father ! Welcome to TheRPF! If you don't have any experience with Fusion360, I highly recommend watching all of Lars Christensen's Fusion 360 Tutorial for Absolute Beginners videos on YouTube... If you're making a Chasis for a Lightsaber, get a set of Digital Calipers from...

Hey Romans Empire ! Would it be possible to order a Telegraph with a Bright Satin No-Logo Clamp with a Folmer Lever? I'd like to etch my own "GRAFLEX" in Aurebesh on it to help me distinguish it from my real GRAFLEX Clamps.

Thanks eethan ! That may have been it. The URL looks right, that's for sure. OOH! LOOKY HERE!.... http://web.archive.org/web/20211030105044/http://www.graflexbank.com/ That 3 GRAFLEX ICON...... is totally what I remember! And this's what I'm looking for...

Hey eethan ! Thank you, but I'm not looking for SethS' LIGHTSABER guide. I'm looking for the GRAFLEX REPLICA GUIDE. As in... the guide to all the Graflex replicas that have been made over the years. And not GRAFLEX Lightsaber replicas, though that's part of it, but most specifically...

Hey Gang! I know somebody was working on a GRAFLEX Replica Guide website or PDF, but I can't find it in my bookmarks, nor saved in my computer. I just saw that Roman has been creating a TELEGRAPH GRAFLEX Replica, and it got me to thinking about custom lightsabers that I could use that for...

Hey guabe ! From the pictures teecrooz posted on page 1, and the magazine spread photo you posted, it looks like the Kit Fisto has a darkened, or black-ringed, grip section if you wanted to update your breakdown image. Good Luck on your run!

Congratulations on finishing your first lightsaber build Completed my found parts build | RPF Costume and Prop Maker Community Raaven1990 ! It doesn't look too different from your concept idea. I'm glad to see that you were able to stay in line with your vision of the saber with the other...

Hey Raaven1990 ! With lots of planning first! I don't know how expsensive, or rare that part is, but I'd make certain I had a game plan for it before I started removing bits I couldn't replace later having realized that I now I had a use for them. It does look like a great size for an...

Hey thd9791 ! The 48th beat me to it, yes, it would be a movie reference. Everyone needs a robot lover, or a lightsaber with a conscience at least that you can talk to. ;) You could fill it full of movie quote fonts, it'd be a hoot! Good Luck on your build! Hey The 48th Ronin ! Did you...

Hey Raaven1990 ! It might be neat to see the lower section of perforated tubing as well. You could remove the black plastic bit off of the side. Then remove the skinny metal tube and route it into the vacant hole left by removing the plastic bit. You might even route a new bit of metal tube...

Hey thd9791 ! You need to etch "2000" in below the Cherry logo. ;)
