Yoda lightsaber templates?

[jason1976]

Hey gang, I'm doing a hardware Yoda saber, and I could REALLY use some templates for the cutouts on the control band, and the cutouts at the top of the saber . One for the little guard/shield (metal piece next to the emitter) would be great too.

I'm wanting to do the VD version, but I'll take what I can get.

Thanks.
Jason

Don't know of any templates, but here's a link to Darth Saber's blueprints: http://lightsaber.cside.com/lightsaber/column/20030226/darthsaber.htm It's the closest thing to an actual template I've ever seen. I've seen some claims of inaccuracies though, but I don't know exactly what they would be. Since the Yoda is built from a Praco flash, I'd assume that would be fairly easy to nail down, but YMMV. Ignore the instructions about the Corvette oil pan, but you might already know that.

And the Yoda VD saber, specifically: http://lightsaber.cside.com/lightsaber/column/20030226/yoda.jpg

Found them by Searching for "saber blueprint."
