Presenting My Corellian Lightsaber, Or, The First in My What If Series...

I machined this on both my metal and my wood lathe...the first saber from my new shop.The only found objects are the knobs and muzzle flare (that was made from a shot mixer)...

I have a few new ideas and while doodling one day I came up with this.
What would Han's saber look like?
So I took inspiration from the various blasters and voila.

Enjoy!!!

Looks pretty cool!

Sort of like a old school police baton meets a lightsaber (and in a good way).

The only thing that would make it better would be a plaque that said "Han stabbed first!"

Great work though. I really dig the bolts on the side. Gives it that cool GK look.

Bill, when I saw this I had to laugh... but it is quite cool. Creative, to be sure. Glad to hear your machines are working out. Maybe I'll have you make some things for me... :lol

What a great idea!

Can you share your ideas for your future "what ifs"?

Nice! It looks like it'd work just fine as a blackjack if it ever malfunctioned.

[Mechamaniac]

Nifty! Looks very old vs new which is what sabers are all about.

But isn't it CorEllian?

 

[Sporak]

Thanks guys I appreciate it.

GH, anytime

Rabbittooth,that means a lot to me.

Anima, it would certainly hurt

Teecrooz, well if a blaster can inspire a lightsaber...then the reverse is also true

Hydin, Han stabbed first, shot first and generally kicked butt.

Mechamaniac,Yes Indeed...but alas I've discovered that once you post a title, you can't edit it. I noticed I for got to capitalize the P in my title too...

But isn't it CorEllian?

 

[wuher da brewer]

Very interesting. I get a kick out of it. It would look good hanging next to a few Han blasters.

 

[robstyle]

hah!
Thats genious!
Now to figure out how to quick draw and aim a lightsaber.

 

[Betamin]

Cool! You get the feeling of a Mauser grip with the Solo sight mount and blaster muzzle all wrapped up in a lightsaber! Great job!

 

[Sporak]

Thanks I tried to make the main body resemble a scope too...

[wuher da brewer]

I can see it. I see the A New Hope hero grill too. Great job.

 

[MisserCraig]

insanely creative and just plain freakin' cool. now i want one

 

[Rabittooth]

OK Sporak...what other sabers you have up yer sleeve for this 'What if" series? Are they just gonna be sabers? Got a Trek saber in the works?

[Howard]

That's really great Bill - a very imaginative combination!

[switchblade_slinger]

This is brilliant. This is the first custom saber i've wanted since the Luuke 'Leia' piece from a few years ago. If you decide to mass produce, let me know....

 

[Hedjii72]

Very very creative! You get an "A"!

 

[Prometheus]

Very impressive! I like the idea of a lightsaber inspired from a blaster. I think using the flash hider similar to Greedo killer (the one with holes on the flash hider) would add a little more character to it.
:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup !!!

 

[SmilingOtter]

That's a great idea!
