Show your custom Lightsabers!

This light saber is heavily influenced by Luke's original, which is my favorite of any light saber. The body is a chrome drain pipe. The end cap is from an old flashlight and the grips are plastic C channel. The front is a two piece, vacuum formed shroud that is black textured painted. I bought the clamp here a couple of years ago but don't know any more about it's lineage. It's decorated with my usual mixture of camera parts, kit pieces, electrical components and custom parts.

I love the little details in the emitter section
 
Thanks a lot. It's a tank tread link and one of my favorite greeblies They show up on two of my blasters too.
 
This started out as a TXQ Judger. I flipped 2 of the emitter guards, painted and weathered them, added buttons and greeblies, and got a 3d printed grenade grip sleeve for the body. Pretty happy with how different it looks from stock.

That came out VERY nice! So many times custom sabers look like a conglomeration of sink parts (which they are) but obviously, that it takes away from looking like a saber!
 
Well, it's not exactly what most people show here. But I'm still proud of my Obi-Wan "Chronicals" Lightsaber.
It was a lot of fun constructing the sword.
And I think the time invested was worth it!?

If you're interested, you can find the free 3D model on MakerWorld #580231
 
I've been working on a crystal chamber for a new saber. It's based on TCSS parts with a few things from The Saber Merchant.
