Show your custom Lightsabers!

Thanks! I want to go back and do it again! :lol:
The experience was certainly fun, and the next year when I watched my kids do it, but I don't think I can shell out $250 again. I like my saber, but it does definitely feel more like a toy next to the rest of my collection.
 
Had a friend over the other day who really wanted to build his own saber. So we raided my vintage parts and knocked this out in a couple hours. He directed the build and I did legwork. He was super stoked by the end of it.

I had a bunch of left over bits and pieces from some lightsabers I built recently, so I took those parts and made a ROTS style "stunt" lightsaber.

I like it! I've been a Star Wars fan since May of 1977 and, while I've always enjoyed seeing lightsaber designs, sometimes I think people are so creative that they can't quite tell when to stop with the details, and the end result barely looks like what it's supposed to be. The relative simplicity of your design here is greatly appreciated by this fan. (y)(y)
