The OT stunt lightsaber blades research thread

Here is a pic of the vintage clamp on my original blank and how it looks underneath.

Weird that it lost its clamp, and then it was replaced! Unless that clamp with the holes is original to ANH which I doubt
I think you may be confused tom.. where else did we see a clamp less v3 in esb? Everything I’ve seen in ESB is the warehouse stunt

Hmm. The clamp on the v3 today was sourced from an ESB Graflex, so it's not original.

I'm trying to timeline out clamps here because it might be a good way to tell them apart in ANH.

That is a theory though and OT a fact, we have yet to find a ESB photo of a graflex with matching holes

the clamp has to come off to remove the motor.. maybe the clamp that went back was a different one?

it’s like the owl from the tootsies pop commercial “the world may never know”

Thanks! That cast is really cool to see.... all the pockmarks and wonkiness. I can even see those vertical lines from the wooden buck!

Ah, okay, that's a fair point. The bolt I IDed in Empire on the front of the saber is above the clamp.

so we have pictures of the "other stunts" in ANH with clamps on them?

Correct, v3 and death saber 100% have clamps
