Vintage ANH Obi Saber (All Vintage Parts)
As I have previously posted, it's been a journey as with most people who go from I could never own a vintage Obi to OMG I can't believe I have achieved this grail prop, sometime back Dustin
newmagrathea completed the build but we were not happy with the BP Cone, so I was able to arrange with Seth
Jediseth to machine a BP Cone with Double O-Ring and with Dustin under the pump with his work, I reached out to Scott
scottjua who we all know does amazing detailed Obi Saber builds to tweak & make some minor adjustments.
I have put together a list of vintage parts and where I obtained them along with a list of people I need to give shout-outs to who helped along the way;
