Absolutely beautiful!!!! Do we have a date for sign ups?? Eagerly waiting
Dewy and Anakin Starkiller's Accurate Obi-Wan Kenobi Episode 1 Lightsaber Design
- Thread starter Dewy
- Start date
Not yet. I'm waiting on having the red button remade. When everything is set, I'll post the sign up in this thread and share it on my Instagram feed and Facebook page
Awesome!! Appreciate the fast reply
I don't like to have sign ups too far before everything is all set. Otherwise when delays come up, people forget their comments. And I never take money until product is ready to ship. Too many ways that can go south. I appreciate everyone's enthusiasm. But believe me, it's better to wait wondering when the sign up will come than to wait wondering where your money has gone 
Definitely not in a hurry, savoring the moment Again, I appreciate your communication I helped Anthony Lage design his 3D Obi Tpm, and until this one, it was probably the second most accurate next to the Orbital Machining. So, grateful you guys are taking as much attention to careI don't like to have sign ups too far before everything is all set. Otherwise when delays come up, people forget their comments.

I built up my prototype here by painting the delrin with satin black, adding found parts LED bezels, and a real blanking cap that I acquired (the knurling is a bit different as is the anodizing due to age, but it's the same part number as the original, pulled from a vintage airplane part). Once I finish modifying my parker, this will be my "All Real Parts" OWK ep1 saber

Will the available hilts come similarly painted or unpainted? Because that looks amazing!

They will not come painted. The Delrin itself will be black and you can assemble the hilt as is, or paint it yourself. I did a couple coats of satin black here, then let it dry for 48 hours then buffed the paint with 0000 steel wool.

Sorry for the delay guys. The problem I'm having is getting the knurling correct on the red button. Drew has located the tooling. But, my shop can't buy the tooling because they can't access the company due to the Chinese firewall. I've bought the tooling and am in the process of sending it to them, but mailing tooling to China is a more difficult task than you would expect. As a result, getting that right is holding us up. It will happen soon, it's just going to take a bit. This is why I never accept money up front, so that these delays-which are inevitable-don't hold other people's money in limbo.
Side question, can you share where that stand came from? I really like it.
