Temporary display for the AS Ep1 hilts. Just missing one more!
thepcmodshop on Etsy. They make good stuff but the seller does it all himself. So manufacturing times are not always accurate. The more custom you go the longer it will be.

Yay, it arrived today. Hoping to get to Bunnings tomorrow and get some threaded rod.
This seems to be what I can get in imperial measurements https://www.bunnings.com.au/macsim-24-x-3-8-zinc-plated-whitworth-threaded-rod_p2410279
I am not having much like finding anything like Acid A14 though. Are there other suggestions for weathering the washers a little? I don't want to go crazy, but match the hilt.

I got the A14 Here in Aus from
A14 Black for aluminium
A14 Black For Aluminium spray or brush Black Antiquing Solution for Aluminum. Using the solution too strong may cause problems.

I stuggled finding the ROD here in Australia too and ended up importing it, Any idea of what Washer you can source here in Australia to go between the two pieces of hilt?

Thank you. I am going to buy that Barnes one. I've had a few people recommend it.I got the A14 Here in Aus from

I found the rod at Bunnings. $4.xx for a 3/8 sized 24 inch long piece I linked above
I bought a pack of 3/8 rubber washers and nuts also (couldn't buy just 1). You don't need the nuts, I'll take mine back.
I'll mail you two washers for the cost of the postage if you want
Went together very fast. Worst bit was the blunt hacksaw cutting the rod.

Did you source the metal parts from some where or did you hand fabricate the parts yourself?Needs weathering and the Covertec but here's my cut end! I'll post the files and a drawing of the measurements I used in the next couple of days
Is it just me or is the cut end somewhat evocative of the Crimson Dawn symbol? Fun little coincidence there.

The only metal parts are three flat head Phillips screws and a brad-hole T-nut. The other part is 3D printed.
See this post for the T-nut:

Since I can never leave well enough alone, I decided to repaint my red buttons. I used a thin coat of Tamiya gloss aluminum followed by a few coats of Dupli-Color MetalCast Red Anodized (MC200). I'm very pleased with the result. Because of the metallic base, the color looks darker when not in...

so does that mean this cone design was sculpted? I think it's crazy they found a machine part for the similar looking junk part from TFA. Was there a real world item that was used to inspire this cone shape on the ep. 1 sabers? Mind you, I'm not saying that the cone fins aren't equidistant in...

That's amazing, I thought the part had to be 3D printed based off of the other post with the link to the files but I can't make out any print lines AND it looks metallic. Great job printing those :O
