I don't think I'll scrape it up. I like the "clean" look I think. Mods still to be done to it are the cone knob (should be here next week), stainless tube for the emitter, and I should have my machined acrylic pointed tips back from the machinest next week as well. I'll add more pics when those mods are done.

Wow!  That looks perfect.  I dont think it's too small at all.  I need to direct JSS to this thread if he hasnt already started on the knobs.  Thanks for the pics

Thanks. It would be cool to have access to more of these cones. I would then do a weathered V2!  ;)

I understand what you mean but I think it's all in how you hold the saber.  I keep my hands pretty high so it doesn't effect me much.

Where you grip the saber, even with two hands you don't realy touch the cone. Your hand falls just above the cone, it's like a resting place for your hand so it does not slip down.
