Finally... got myself an Obi-Wan ANH FX!!! Woohoo!!!

[Romans Empire]

Made a new run of Balance Pipes a few weeks ago, and had some extra steel left over... So after thinking about and wanting to make an FX Balance Pipe for the last few years... I finally made a few of these...



I wanted to make a super intricate, overly-elaborate adapter... and the guys at the shop looked at me like I was crazy!! :lol In the end, simplicity really is king!
1" tube fits nice and snug inside the Balance Pipe, and the adapter fits nice and snug inside the tube!

After filing down the sharp corners of the LED it fit in the adapter as snug as a bug in a rug. The lense has a slightly smaller diameter, so it fit easily. But I still opted to file down the one little "nub" all of these lenses seem to have.

Anyways... I picked up the new FX BPs today, and got to work... No sound yet, but it's coming! Hope you guys like. :cheers

If there's enough interest I'll make an actual run of FX BPs, but for right now I only made 9 extra. So I'm going to offer the few I made as complete kits in the JY or Project Run area (still need to make more hollow clamp spacers).

Nice work Roman! Hope to own one of your hilts some day.
