A New Hope Light Saber Build

So begins the journey!
I thought I'd share my current build with my fellow Star Wars fanatics. First off I want to say that my build won't be a perfect replica rather my attempt at building something I've long desired. My hope is that it will be enjoyable to watch my progress and to hopefully inspire others to build what they love!

Where did you get the template?

For the next step i used an Xacto blade to scribe the areas that will be cut out. This wil give me clean lines to cut to later in the process.

I’m absolutely loving this resurgence in Graflex scratch-builds! You’re off to a great start, DarthBane!

Is that aluminium tube you’re using, or something else?
