Really Cool host...

[NoMercyFate]

Hey everyone ,

I came across these lightsabers the other day and I think it would make a pretty damn cool host .

Anyone interested in playing around with the idea/see if it is possible

I have an old full one with the battery case missing, someone gave me for parts to make a laser host from, the amount of plastic and internal construction are iffy it would require quite a bit of modification. Its a full size though.

its only 1/2" diameter too it wouldn't fit anything standard in it you would have to custom build something

aww... Well there are people here that do that kinda work (eg Jayrob) But won't be possible for us simple minds xD
Haha Thnx for the reply

This question popped up a long time ago.

I dont recall why, but these would not make good lasers.

hmm, wouldnt be too hard. eudaimonium could make you some custom heatsinks and stuff.
and you would have a nice amount of space for a laser build. i'd say go for it. would be truly unique

p.s that lightsaber looks a bit small. why not get a full size metal one. would be better heatsinking and easier to build into

 

[NoMercyFate]

Yes probably a metal more expensive (2nd hand, broken down) thing would be a lot better You only need the host There are some bigger ones out there. I just saw it and thought it would be pretty cool haha

try not to search for replicas, they cost a fortune. im sure you can find a metal lightsaber hilt somewhere for a cheap price

lol you inspired me to take another wack at taking apart an old obi wan lightsaber to see what I can make out of it, 2 hours now and much blood shed, I cored most of the plastic and electronics, I tapped out a rivet, unscrewed the switch, nothing on the main tube seems to want work with me, I could not even get it to unscrew at its joints using a huge set of pliers and a vice, I am about to hack saw it in half.

 

[daawood123]

ahh you mean the blade, yeah that can be a pain, try sawing it and melting/burning/filing/sanding away the remains on the inside

They are 2 places on the main hilt that should unscrew but when they made it they dumped a pound of glue everywhere inside It is a decent size internally, would be good for home brew dpss perhaps, or RGB laser or BR laser It is a Obi Wan master replica hilt, took allot of "force" to take this thing apart.
