Stormtrooper Concept Saber

This is my Stormtrooper Concept Saber. I heard that Lucas initially wanted stormtroopers to carry these, so it got me thinking. I used the commlink as a guide. I built this with PVC, rubber o-rings, pipe fittings, A button from Radio Shack and a d-ring.
Custom Saber #1

This is a Heiland body with a Graflex slave for an emmiter. As a RPF board member noted, it is now called a "Heilex".
Custom Saber #2

This is made from a flashgun, a graflex style clamp and assorted parts
Custom Saber #3

This is made from a flashgun and assorted parts
Custom Saber #4

This is called the "Blade Saber". The body was made from a Airsoft Mac-11 silencer. The main emmiter part is a resin casting of an actual used sword hilt in the movie "Blade". The part was cut down and affixed to the silencer. Assorted parts and a leather wrap were also added
Custom Saber #5

This is my Dark Saber. I used a Minicam flash tube as a base, then added the extra parts. I used a bike grip, circuit boards, film canister, TI calculator bubble, pipe, o-rings, computer parts and more. One of my favorites customs so far
Custom Saber #6

One of the first flash gun sabers I made. An "Abbey" Flash Gun as a base, mouse pad grips, circuit boards, computer parts, etc.
Custom Saber #7

This was the second flash gun saber I made. I modeled it after Vaders saber. I use a "Peak" flash gun, rubber grips from Blast-Tech and created a shroud out of sheet metal.
Custom Saber #8

I built this from a "Walz" flash gun.
Custom Saber #9

This is a complete hardware saber. I modeled it after Obi-Wan's ANH saber using a tutorial I found created by "Tristan". Chrome tube, sink faucet, mouse pad, pipe, washers, etc. A lot of work and this sucker is HEAVY. This was the first saber I created when I started this hobby.
Custom Saber #10

This was a gift for my birthday from my brother. He built it in his machine shop. This thing has some real heft to it. Its about 10 lbs.
Custom Saber #11

This is my version of a "Gothic" style saber. I used a black Graflite 3-cell for a base.
Custom Saber #12

This is my junk yard saber. I built this with spare parts from my work bench. An unmarked flash battery holder, floppy drive parts for an emmiter, a button from Radio Shack and the mousepad double grips.
