Build Thread for my take on the ROTJ Luke Lightsaber (fully machined)

I know how that is, I seem to often be out in the shop until 1am and still have to get up at 530 to head into work. Somehow I am finding time to get my kid to Karate class, cut videos and eat.
I've been in kind of a hurry as I'm going in for minor surgery on Tuesday and will be laid up for a week or two after. I do still have a lot of video that I need to put together so I'm hoping I'll be able to do that even while recovering.

We both are my friend. This is actually all new to me as well.
I was thinking of putting together a someone tongue-in-cheek home DIY step by step, that includes searching Craig's list to find and purchase a lathe and milling machine. Something I really only started back in January of this year.
OK, this ended up being way more difficult than it looked. At least to get a consistent and repeatable set of triangles. I wont have a great build video on the jig that I made it ended up being so much trial and error that the video would have maxed out Youtubes 10hr limit and I would have still had to cut it way down. Instead I'll post a small video and review of how I made it.
May be a little while though I haven't shot any footage for it yet. These two pictures are all the media I've made in the last 3 days.
