Edraven99's Collection Tread - Long Overdue Updates

Re: Edraven99's Real Parts Lightsaber Build Thread - Obi Wan Display WIP

Oh and if anyone has an extra red "hot" plastic ring off of their AS tap handle that they aren't planning to use in their build, I need one for the display :D

I will check. I have a few extra taps in storage.

You know... you're the only guy I know where if I had said that I needed an extra balance pipe and your response was "lemme check... I might have a few extras in storage..."

I wouldn't bat an eyelash that you didn't somehow... :D

I'm gonna assume that's just your regular tap from your own home there...

Four of the handwheels I found over the years came attached to the actual faucets. They are all just sitting in a box. I put the hot handwheel back on it to try to convince David he needs one for his display!

Well I'm also gonna assume your cabinets are built using T-tracks, heh.

I'm still debating.... I'm worried that it would too "on the nose" for the display... though I guess it would depend on how big the tap is with the handle on it....

I love the note from Guinness. Classy, man.

What if you flipped the grenade and put the balance pipe and plaque on the other side. I like the grenade going the same direction as the saber and right now the dark grenade is next to dark booster.
 
Re: Edraven99's Real Parts Lightsaber Build Thread - Obi Wan Display -Thoughts??

I had a similar thought about the dark booster and the dark grenade... my other thought was swapping the calculator and the booster... I'll try both ideas and see...
 
Re: Edraven99's Real Parts Lightsaber Build Thread - Obi Wan Display -Thoughts??

I'll send you the red ring for the hot tap along with that other thing I owe you so you can call this sucker done! I just need that parcel to arrive first, but it should be Wednesday or Thursday of this week.

It's a little better.... but I don't like how the BP is now sort of covering the booster now.... I also don't like how the chrome hand wheel against the chrome Graflex in the background.... but I think I prefer having the Graflex to the left.... I'll play around with it some more...

Looks great all around.
I've been meaning to ask: What did you use for the transistor washer on the Obi? Is that a vintage part or one of Roman's?
