I am thinking if it fits ok etc i might make a quicky mold of it
Why not? It´s yours, so you can do what you want - and i assume some will sell. .

Does your collet have eight ridges? I think that's the accurate one. All the collets have seen up until yours had six ridges.

It was mentioned in the weapons / prop shop video.I read somewhere they did Rey's staff out of found parts, but JJ thought it looked too big, so they scanned and shrunk the pieces down. then 3D printed.
Could be wrong though...
For the Star Destroyer Capacitor Bearing, 8 ridges on the collet definitely looks more accurate to me than 6 ridges...

There's no way you could get just 2 more ridges on the unseen side with the same size spacing as is between the ridges on the seen side. Unless someone has a blu-ray still that shows I'm completely wrong of course....
I ordered an 8-ridge collet myself.

Yes, but by the same person who confidently informed us that Ankakin/Luke/Rey's saber was made from a 'Grapple-flex' camera flash, so... I dunno, large grain of salt?It was mentioned in the weapons / prop shop video.
ordered?

eBay UK has 3 of the 8-ridge collets for sale for £20 each Buy It Now. Can't post a link, but they come up in a search.
Any know what is between the collet and screwdriver packaging on the prop? Possibly the connector end of a large PVC pipe?
The collet also looks a lot like the ends of Darth Maul's lightsaber (though not exact)...
I actually think there was a clean version and a dirty version looking at the photos with different ridges
