My first Lightsaber, a ANH Obi Wan

I hope someone didn't supply you with dimensions from his transistors. ;)

Noone measured Russ parts for using them. I don´t know the dimensions of his, would not ask for them.

I know it´s to oldschool for many todays user with instant need of immediate answers, but sometimes it is helpfull to use the search for info, instead of just opening a new post for easy answers. The truth is out there, it just needs some more work - but that´s a part of the fun, doing something on your own instead of just ordering ready stuff. ;)
 
Your work is very good.
It is a very nice replica. I have a question though and no offense meant.
Why did you wheather the grenade part and nothing else?
Also does any one know if the grenade on the original film prop was parkerized?
Very nice saber and built very well and solid.

It´s a WIP ;)

What Markus said is correct - it´s a WIP ..... sort of, at least. ;)

The Graflex-clamp is taken off and put again on it´s Graflex (another not completly ready piece),

It had still no D-ring or accurate bubblestrip, the only weathered parts are the grenade and the steel-booster (and the booster ring with holes). And now even the clamp is gone.:lol
 
Since this is a thread of the past I still feel the need to reply to alexmiller1 ... the grenade used for an OB1 lightsaber is not a handgrenade, though it could technically be thrown away ... it's a rifle grenade which was shot by a rifle. Please google 'British WW1Hale's No.3MkI grenade' and you'll find plenty of pictures and information. However if you mean where can I get my hands on a replica grenade as used by Lichtbringer in above pictures ... might I suggest Romans Empire in the USA or russrep in the UK :)

P.S. Does anyone know of the whereabouts of member Lichtbringer ... he 's not been seen on this forum since May 2013?
