Could a 2cell Slave be used for this?

Is that what you mean?

It probably could, but you'd have a gap where there's not supposed to be one. I meant that camera collectors already hate SW fans, so cutting up a Graflex would really kill them.

Thanks! :thumbsup The cleanup involved a lot of soaks in solvent, some welding, buffing, and a lot of scotchbrite finishing.

Please tell us more.
I've a Graflex waiting for an ESB Luke Hoth and it's beaten up, too.
So maybe you could tell us: How many soaks in what solvents, what did you weld and buff and which scotchbrite did you use?
I'm afraid there is no kneeling and pleading smily available here

Careful! This kinda talk will attract a scolding from Chaim!

There is something about a beat up saber though... I look forward to a well used ESB version in my future.

Okay Okay Okay...Peace :lol

I'll let it the way it is as was my first intention. You are right Luke's saber should look beaten up especially in ESB.
Was just the wow-effect what could be achieved with some solvents and scotchbrite.
