Lightsaber update
Tuesday, March 21, 2006 by Island Dog | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Well I finally got most of the parts to begin building my first LED lightsaber. I got the basic hilt pretty much done. I still have some more cutting and some drilling/tapping of some screws. I also have to customize the hilt with some parts and craft foam.
After an hour of soldering I got all the electronics done. I did buy the wrong switch, but it still works with my design.

I put a 3W luxeon LED in the hilt. It's very powerful and is very bright at night. I still have some more work to do so I will keep the updates coming.

| Im stuck. In one hand I want one, on the other hand I keep thinking of the 40 Year Old Virgin. |
Well, as long as you've already... heh em.. done it... heh em. Then you don't need to worry about having a little old lightsaber. I've got a wife and a son, so I have proof.
Plus, I'm only 32.
