Heiland 2 flash/lightsaber conversion

[RakoKharis8781]

I need help and ideas of what to do.
I want to make it look like Luke Skywalker lightsaber from when he was dueling his father on Bespin and I'd like advice on figuring out how to make a stand that looks like Luke's hand but still gripping the saber. Any advice would be welcome.

Hey, welcome. You can check out the custom lightsaber thread, lots of ideas here. the heiland is more adapted to do a Vader than a Luke but you can surprise us

Very well I will try to do a Vader saber. I can't wait to see what I will come up with.

Hate to be a bother... could you shoot me a link to that thread?

Hmm - flashes come in many shapes. the Graflex has a very specific S shaped bevel on top - and it's part of the main tube. Heilands are much like Vader Micro Precision Products flashes - the main tube is heavy, chromed, and ends in a flat edge so that the black beveled shroud can fit over the top. So... I have no idea how to make a Heiland into a Graflex shape!

Here's my ESB Hero and an old Heiland project I did..
