I went to see The Last Jedi yesterday, and despite what the majority of people thought of it, I actually found it to be a really enjoyable movie.
So much so that I was inspired to start my next lightsaber build. I figured if I have Luke's first lightsaber, I needed his second to go alongside it, and I really liked the prop as it appeared in Episode 8 and the Episode 7 behind-the-scenes video.
Since this design is slightly more complicated than the Graflex, I’ve chosen to build mine using a combination of 3D printed and metal parts.
Based on the very limited reference material, I made this model for the “hilt” - featuring the thicker, more uniform rings that set this apart from the ROTJ props.
Since you all seem to be the authority on lightsaber props, I was hoping to get some feedback/suggestions before I have it printed.
