I am very manic about details and variations, it's not a star wars or something else, I also do bonsai art and mineral collection and the detail is also important.
I also like idealized prop, and how to explain how it could work or be if it exists in real, i don't see a prop, but a real thing,and screen used props are often disapointing on this point, I refer to imagine how they are in a fictive universe, and then, find a compromise so they could get close to real in our world, but when the props are using real stuff, especially in star wars movies, of course all the details have to be accurate.
I already made searches about the 3 main lightsabers and the droid caller, collectin g all informatiosn about variations on the stuff they used.
For example, each variation on a part of a mpp based lightsaber makes more complicated to get the right version to make the saber, and there are 10 different parts subject to variations on it...
