Obi-Wan ANH Saber Build

Am annoyed with myself, as I filled the hollowed-out booster / clamp piece with too much resin and not enough buckshot

So...

It's not as heavy as I think it could have / should have been...

Grrrrr....

Looking nice.
To that last post, you'll figure it out.
...or start another project. BTW, is this project 37, or 38, and all at the same time???
(smacks me....and not that I have any room to talk)

Just 37...!

So...

As a reminder...

I'm using older (OLD) parts that were cast in OLD resin PRIOR TO FULL DISCOVERY of the original Obi-Wan saber parts.

The cast resin Graflex clamp pre-dated the resistor discovery / discoveries.

My personal version uses a part from my "spares box"

The cast version featured Phillips head and standard slot-head screws, cast in resin. I cut and drilled these cast screws OUT, and replaced them with the knurled knobs on my version, seen above...

Remember WAY back when we thought the emitter shaft (MK1) was from a motorcycle hand grip?!

And the emitter was a sink drain...?
