Just arrived in the mail.
Superb condition for their age. Sharp edges, bright and shiny.
Question is, which one do I put on my saber - hot or cold?
EDIT.
Okay - after cleaning these with my fingernail I've just discovered they can be taken apart.
Between the black arrows is the gap seen in the pictures of this prop we all know so well, just below the cubes. There's two of these opposite each other, and they're around .5mm wider that the base of a cube.
Here's a pic of the parts reversed and screwed back together, having rotated the cubes. A PERFECT match for the prop.
My long, long search is finally over.
Howard.

I'm not much of a lightsaber guy so please don't beat me up for this but...
What makes this AS handwheel different from the ones we've all used in the past?

Howard, you're a GOD.
But maybe you knew that.
One thing bothers me-- in the following pic (not yours, I know), the concave pillar under the handwheel pretty closely matches the transition part between the handwheel and the gear-- did you get stiffed?
SUPER find-- your hard work has paid off. Salutations.

WOW
But the sad part is that Serafino can't do anymore scaled drawings and detailed analysis of all those countless pommel pictures, surmising what it should look like. What's he going to do now?.?.??.
oh wait, there's still the emitter (you know I love ya Andres )

Uh, thanks, but you're like a year too late to get the non-accurate modern handwheels, and around 20-30 years too late to get the accurate originals.Originally posted by darthig88@Sep 9 2005, 03:29 PM
