Obi Wan ANH Crystal Chamber Lightsaber build.

[Oben]

Hi, really nice work. I'd rather see a regular crystal if that helps. I'll follow this thread with most interest!

Thanks guys

I'm gonna try 2 kits Crystal and fiber

So after many trial and errors, finally was able to come up with the correct size. Now just looking for shops to start.
here is a quick clip on what were looking at. would anyone interested? if so I could possible start a project thread.
hope you like it! again this is just how it open and closes. It will have more detail in the chamber area, and there will be no need to modify any of Romans Sabers. It will just be an add on kit.

how do you upload the vid? without it being a link?

So cool.

I think I'm missing how it'll work with the threaded rod down the middle on Roman's version.

No prob . Basically at the end of the chamber their will be a section that the rod can attach to that will hold the rest of the pieces together

But when the Crystal Chamber is "closed", wouldn't the rod be to long to fit in? I'm no expert, just asking

Pending on if you plan to make a kit with a crystal, i'm interested!

Trying to visualize the chamber and the single threaded rod occupying the same space. Sorry that I'm not getting it, maybe in future updates with pics.
Still excited by this project.

No prob guys. I'll sketch a visual on what then end product will be like .
