Wow thank you!

Buckethead Props you deserve it it is great!

100% absolutely still stands today! Champion, thank you @Buckethead Studios

sherman lo I was thinking a fusion of Vader/Anakin and Luke’s green saber

That’s what I was thinking

Gaizkia lmao saying that is literally the same as saying obi wan’s episode 3-4 hilt, since they are both thin necks, and that is what she is referring to i believe. also luke used the same design process as obi wan to make his ROTJ hilt.

@@setht7322 its also literally the same prop. Only changed somewhat.

Yes! Do it 😁

Also more in the spirit of the force.

can totally be done without it and within budget, and had an idea for the bottom before I found it.

I started with this Vader’s Vault saber I found just laying in the street... lol

Haha I found this kyber crystal on top of my fridge

Thank you 🙂

Awesome! Can't wait to see it 🙂

thank you so much :D

@@BucketheadStudios No problem, I always love to support cool people who do cool things and share them with the world.

@@BucketheadStudios OH! Something I forgot to mention (a minor thing, really) is that I would rivet the covertec wheel in because screws look to Earthly for my taste. That's just me tho, I still think that this saber is marvelous!

Do it! 😄

Wooo well done in starting, look forward to seeing it 🙂

Thank you! Good luck with the build!

Thank you! Yes, was going for a OT look for this one

Art Attack? xD

Its actually spelt differently over here, there's an additional i! 😁 aluminium

Haha thank you, yeah the design turned out quite well

@@BucketheadStudios yes indeed. :)

Thank you! 😁🙌🏻

Thank you! 😁 though I'd forever argue my skills are mediocre 😄😄

I'm afraid I don't know, just in the plumbing section 🙂

I've noticed that also. Intentional or not, they all end up looking like one of the original trilogy sabers. This one is a little different in that it looks like Darth Vaders lightsaber had a lovechild with Lukes RotJ saber.

Hi, although the material costs are under £20, the work involved would push the price up. This was also a 'buy what you can get' kind of project, so no guarantee I could get the same parts. You could do a lot of this with a couple of hand tools and glue. I know I used power tools, but that only speeds things up a little. I would say you could do it with a hacksaw, files, sandpaper, craft knife, and a power drill (the drill only if you wanted to do something similar to mine) The rest is just the hard work getting everything fitted together and glued up. I'm not closed to the idea of commissions, but the many hours of work have to be taken into account :)

Buckethead Props Definitely understand that-as with any craft, hours put in play a factor in the price. I’m happy to take this to DMs to see if we could work something out, and if not, no harm no foul.

Blue!

Mine were picked up locally. You can see in the pic, they were just bits and pieces going cheap. They're either plumbing or gas pieces

Covertec clip for pagers. Don't know where I got that one, but places like the saber armory sell them, most lightsaber part sellers will have them

Just a cutting mat, mine is A2 size but you can get different sizes, easy to get too just on Amazon etc. I now have a black one which I love

Thank you!

$25 USD or there abouts 😁

Not sure where I got that one, but it's a covertec clip, you can get them from saber sites such as thesaberarmory.com/collections/belt-accessories

@@BucketheadStudios thank you soo much.

The brass parts will be tricky, the pipe parts - just look for pipe connectors, big ones were 40mm, small 32mm, and end caps. Aluminium pipe I believe was 40mm, which is about 1 ½ inches I think. Unfortunately most of it was just looking round stores to see what they had on offer, and making it up as I go

Thank you!

@@BucketheadStudios Have you fitted a sound board or blade after this build at all?

No I haven't, due to the construction with the threaded rod I don't think it's possible. Just sits on the shelf 🙂

1 ½ inch diameter, and got about 30cms or 1 foot of it 🙂

Buckethead Props thanks! 🙏

🤣 the budget version

Don't really know much about him, not come across him much 🤔

Just straight acrylic, maybe a bit of water to help it if it's a little thick

@@BucketheadStudios link to some good varnish?

Sorry, no idea. If you check 1:18 you can see where I pulled them from. Just assorted plumbing pieces I believe

Buckethead Props Ok thankyou

Buckethead Props I need them so I can do the same kind of thing that you did but can't find anything like them

@@harolld2487 make your own design dont copy.

Alex Hetherington I didn’t I was just asking the guy what equipment he used so I knew what to look for mine looks completely different.

Got my stuff from Wickes, Homebase, a local hardware centre and online

@@BucketheadStudios ah k

About $25 or so

Not battle ready, but have installed a graflex with sound and crystal chamber, as well as building and finishing some canon sabers :)

Buckethead Props can you please send a link to these videos? I would really like to watch them!

Hi, yeah unfortunately entry is only on Instagram as the judges will be looking at the hashtag to see who has entered

That's fine. Thanks. Keep up the awesome work!

Just had to look back 😄 it was 16swg or 1.6mm

@@BucketheadStudios thankyou

Did you not watch the part about the covetec clip ?
