If you figure out the electronics let me know, that’s my only downfall, I’m reading up on a little bit of electronics oh boy does my head hurt !!!OR-- I could scrap and redo the ones I've done... I'm thinking of using one for my first FX saber if I can wrap my head around electronics work.
Any suggestions on what to do for the pommel
Super Sculpey! Or Magic Sculpt. Just sculpt it, bake or heat gun it, prime and paint it. Or head over to the hardware store and use a sink knob. It won't be perfectly like the Green ROTJ, but I've seen some really good looking sabers built wtih modern sink knobs.
Keep at it!
I thought it was perfect that there was a bevel in the reflector dish of Canon flashes that fit precisely into the top rim.
I used the tripper's metal shell as bunny ears.

Wow!
DUDE...
