Correct Vader ESB t-track? Help!

[neihofft]

My MPP will be here soon, and I am of course making an ESB saber. The one on the left is a fan made from vintage, and on the right is the Master Replicas.
The fan made has a t track directly underneath the bubble strip. I have also seen fan blue prints have this, as well as many fan builds.

The master replicas however have t tracks on either side of the strip, instead of one starting below it.

The question is, who got it wrong? Which is the correct placement?

(To qualify, its not a weird angle, I know the MR have them on either side of the strip)

Aligned with bubble strip.
Also if you need t-track you can get it here:

I can only recommend Roys tracks and prices. It´s great stuff.

Todds Costumes is more accurate to early OT track, and cheaper for folks in the states.

Roy used the ROTJ vader saber for his track, which has slightly thicker and nicer looking track

While I can't speak to accuracy, I can vouch for the quality and price. They're very nice in person, and at about half the price of Roy's are by far the cheapest option out there.

I love Todd's stuff, but I am not sold to his asymmetrical theory.

And for those on a budget - don't forget Marvs tracks.
