Accurate Obi ANH with CF 7/ Cex on a Romans Empire replica

[scottjua]

This is the first of a series of Accurate Obi ANHs I will be doing in the coming weeks and months for some people.


This one was a weathered Romans send in, so I didn't do anything too much in the way of cosmetics, aside from a few little things.


Watchmaker Lam from Lethal Crystal, helped me out with the Obi chassis we developed for the special build we did for Oliver last year, and this will be the system I use from here on out to do these. It's a puzzle and lots of wiring to get everything in there, but the chassis is brilliantly laid out, and makes for a super clean install when done.

[NeoRutty]

Love this.

I assumed I'd be independently wealthy as an adult. This has not yet come to fruition, but as soon as it does, I'm jumping on one of these! heh.

scottjua - Does the CF7 come with all those fonts standard? *Thinking... Thinking...*

 

[scottjua]

Comes with 12 fonts standard but not those canon specific ones.

 

[WhillB]

OK, OK. How much?

 

[James Kenobi 1138]

Super nice saber, one of those is on my list.

 

[scottjua]

THanks... Meant to bring it yesterday, but forgot when loading up all my own stuff.

WOW. incredible. What sort of button/touch thing is set up under the calc bubbles?

 

[scottjua]

two tactile switches pushed by a rocker in the clamp crevice.

This looks just amazing! I have the Romans OB1 saber and I'd love to put something like this in it myself. Perhaps you could give us some advice on which parts you've used and how you managed to get the wires for the LED from the body to the emitter? I'd love to see some detailed photos of the inside of that thing!

 

[scottjua]

It would take all day to describe it all...

On the next one I will try to get some pics of the middle stages, but when I start building I usually truck on through.
