![]() It was absolutely my pleasure. :)
To make this particular saber hilt, I started with 1" and 1 1/2" diameter pvc pipe, cut to your specifications. The hardest part was probably routing the accordian tubing with nothing but a few c-clamps and a .5" dremel sanding disk. After all the pieces were cut and sanded, I used plastic bonding epoxy to hold the parts togeather, painted it, and set the crystals. A few quick layers of clear top-coat, and I applied the fire after doing some damage weathering (my favorite part). Let the whole thing settle overnight, slapped on a few more top-coat layers, and it was just about ready to go. Recycled a black t-shirt for the grip, stitched into place. The cloth it came wrapped in was a bandana I used while enlisted in the Marines. Cut off the end of a dowel and painted with the the crest you provided in your photo, and viola! Custom lightsaber hilt! |
