Custom Built Lightsabers
"Rhabdos"
MHS Custom with modular outer body, genuine walnut veneer, acid etching, gold leafing, and full length removable G-Core!
"Rhabdos" features a full length, free-floating G-Core. It will also incorporate my latest skill advancements (wood veneer, acid etching, gold leafing, etc). I begin by machining the forward section (below) which is purely for detail and hiding the wiring for the LED and switches up front, and the rear section (top) which contains all the primary electronics (recharge port, RICE port, 1.5W speaker, 7.4V 14650 li-ion pack, and the Crystal Focus v6.5).
Here it is assembled. I lathed a custom blade holder out of an MHS blank. It is narrower to offset the wider body. The rear section is walnut veneer over a one piece MHS body, sealed with four coats of Polycrylic for longevity. The entire outer body unscrews cleanly to reveal this full length G-Core, which completely detaches as shown. Being all metal, the G-Core is secure enough to be swung around also!
The sixth soundbank is configured for a very bright yellow, and its "flash on clash" color is red, for 45 milliseconds.
