Oh and here is a back shot of the box showing the details of it



Going through the last few pages of the thread, and find that you where successful making the dimples larger is fantastic! And that metal work is amazing! This is going to look amazing anodized, yes know it's now old news but I have been of the forum for more than a month.

Will you be anodizing it with a gloss finish and any plans to weather, I like the polished look but thought I should ask?

I hope we're close to an update, I'm very excited at the thought of seeing an anodized saber.  Chewie, out of curiosity how long do you expect the electronics installs to take once you have the anodized parts?

no sorry we are not.  I have still not had a chance to separate and send off the hilts to be anodized.

The installs will take a while as well.  They will be split up between the two of us so that will help out a good bit but we (like all smiths) are extremely busy.  We will get these out as quickly as we can though.  Again first thing first is getting them anodized.  When I get a chance I will do that.  I thought I would have had a chance to before now but I just haven't.

I am sorry if my last update made people think we were just a short time away from being complete.  This is just one part of the process (getting the hilts).

I am getting very close to being caught up with all sound boards for TCSS so that its just simply restocking and hopefully that will be about the time of installs and I can focus on those.

As always I ask everyone to just remain patient with us.  I am doing the best I can with the growth of the industry over the last year.

Thanks for the update
Can you imagin what it's going to be like In 1 to 2 yrs time? Sabers and saber collecting is going to be in a completely different league when more starwars movies are released

I'm glad I have got most of the Sabers I want already as I see getting them could be a little harder in the future

Can't wait to see these anodised up

Thanks for the update.  Are you thinking another couple months then?

More like a few months if I had to guess.

By way of perspective, I am currently running at about 16-18 weeks on Product Saber projects.  I have ~50-60 currently in line and the GK3's will slide in after whatever is there when they are ready.  I will likely be giving a similar 16-18 week time frame once i get them in hand unless some magic happens and I grew a 7th and 8th arm.

Strap in guys, this is the new way with the huge and renewed interest in SW.  Multi-year runs are becoming more the norm nowadays.  Just too much demand on these master sabersmiths.  I'm guessing early next year but obviously hope for sooner.

I just want to thank Chewie and the General again for all their hard work on this saber. It already looks beautiful and I have no doubt will be awesome when all's said and done. So thank you Chewbacca and Grievous!

I'll be honest, I'm kind of glad it'll be quite a while before everything's finished up. I want to make sure I have the funds on hand to pay at a moment's notice.  :jediblue:
