Russrep/Romans Obi Parts Mix and Match?

[sdhlaw1701]

Hey all i have a question: Can I mix a Russrep grenade and emitter with a Romans pommel, spacer, booster, and cone? If so how. Thanks in advance.

I don't know if Roman's emitter cone will work. If I recall correctly, his last run emitters were slightly smaller than the Russrep. However, that might have changed if he's since redone them. The rest of his parts should be interchangeable with the Russrep because they're all taken from measurements of real parts.

You'll need the spacer/assembly adapter to hold them all together. Roman makes one that simply slides into place on a threaded rod and then you use the emitter cone and pommel as the "stoppers" so the parts don't slide off. (As seen in Roman's thread here.)

It's all pretty easy to figure out once you have the parts in hand. I personally created something like this:

This is a Roman spacer with two t-nuts on each end. This allowed for the saber to be easily field stripped like a real weapon, which I prefer.

Thanks. I am not sure about the cone.

about the cone,if it's 26,3mm it will work.
But you will have better to take a russ cone...
about the other parts,absolutely no problem.

Thanks. I'll have to see if Russ is going to make another run of the cone, or try to find one.

I believe Russ mentioned he will be offering the cone again, after finishing his ongoing grenade/emitter run.

Good looking spacer you've got there.....

Had some good advice in making it from one of the best!

I'll be done with my NEW cone adapters later this month. They will fit a genuine or replica Balance Pipe (emitter)

So if you have my cone adapter and pommel, everything else is no problem.

Great to know. I have many parts to purchase including the cone!
