Graflex 2.0 Sabers - Show your work / Talk Electronics

I was hoping when I get mine in to straighten it out to the way the originals are so I can make it look like the TFA version.

That might be difficult to do since straightening it would make it no longer align with the screw hole it's supposed to go over.
 
Stand from Darklyte customs on etsy arrieved, and I finished up the mockup for my plaque; it'll be engraved on a 2x4 acrylic plate w/a brushed aluminum finish.

Jeez! I'm in the wrong business...painting Fett stuff! This is much less time consuming.

I think there is potential employment for any of us that complete a build and want to build others. Limitation will be parts I'm afraid... Glad I'm in on this hilt run. I expect the next one to sell out super-quick.
 
Im currently working on making a cap with a Graflex 2 Cell. Waiting for the epoxy to dry on my test one.The rivets or D ring cover the "2"

I will definitely post pics when done
 
Been debating selling this one and just getting the wife a black series. She wont know the difference! Lol. Seriously though this is insane! Time to take a step back and re evaluate what I do with my free time. Painting takes more space then building sabers and is a lot messier.

The problem with eBay is it's going to get flooded real fast and the hype will die and you'll be stuck selling something you love for not a lot of money. Also, you have to think that anything you make someone else is going to be criticizing. Any flaw, lack of attention to detail and it will be all over the internet. You need to be sure your work can stand for itself otherwise it causes HUGE headaches. I'm absolutely NOT criticizing anyone's work here because I have never seen it, I'm simply stating a fact. The internet can be a real ****ty place and it sucks when someone thinks something you put a lot of time and effort into is complete crap and they feel they got "ripped off". Sometimes (a lot of the time lol) I really hate this planet.
