Here is a saber stand design I am offering for free (CC BY-NC-ND 3.0).

The stand can be under lit with some diffusion and LEDs (could be regular strips, pixels, or even 5mm LEDs)

Here's a shot with the stand lit up with 3 60/m strips of 12 pixels with an RGB value of (125,100,25).  It looks great, but I think 4 strips might be better.  I only really used pixels because it's what I have on hand. I would probably use dumb RGBW strips or just white depending on what I want to do, although pixels do give the option of running off a ESP8266 or ESP32 that you can control by wifi or bluetooth.
