Title: FX-SABERS Graflex Chassis 2017 Evolution Update. (first look)
Post by: Yoda on May 04, 2017, 01:09:15 PM
Hello everyone

Continuing from the Evolution post of my Original Chassis Systems and how they
came to be over the years. 2005 - 2017
The FX-SABERS GRAFLEX CHASSIS EVOLUTION (History and Picts) (https://www.fx-sabers.com/forum/index.php?topic=19120.0)

I wanted to post a few pictures of the latest evolution of my graflex chassis
to show people what the new systems are going to be looking like.

After the auctions of last year I wanted to be able to produce a version of my chassis
that improved upon its overall construction and assembly along with enhancing the elegance
and purposefulness to the look that the prototypes from last year proved to be well liked.

Keeping with my classic look that people have come to know and want to be able to add to
their collection of sabers, I have made updates to the overall set-up and now am using
numerous sections being cut in stainless steel and updating the structural assembly
and esthetics along with a new synthetic set of crystals that will add consistency to
the builds and more durability for use but still retain the original look of the drilled
crystal systems I have created over the years.

The Saber being show is not for sale as it actually went to Celebration 8 with its owner.
I hope everyone will like how things are looking and thank you all for the interest and
support you have showed over the years for the original Graflex chassis  :cool:

Please note I am still working out production fabrication of some of the new parts
so once I have that sorted out I will be able to go back to having my Auctions and
build log active but for now certainly feel free to post your interest as well as any
comments or questions you may have about the chassis with the updated look.

I will post more information as I get production issues worked out and can move forward.
The Few set-ups I currently am working on will most likely be auctioned until I get the
production issues worked out.

I still have fond memories of my pre-chassis graflex from you some years ago. Great to see this continuing to evolve and be made available and to raise the bar of what's a benchmark to many in beautiful saber internals. Looks awesome!
Good thoughts and good wishes to you on the health front and much respect and appreciation for your continued practice of your art with the challenges this entails. Take care!

Hello everyone

Thnak you all so much for your continued support and I am so sorry for the delays
in getting things going again but my latest auction is now up.

Here is the info for it here in the forum...
FX-SABERS Graflex 3 Cell Lightsaber & Display - 2017 New Chassis #03 - (https://www.fx-sabers.com/forum/index.php?topic=51932.msg655992;topicseen#msg655992)

Due the the increased cost of the chassis parts and vintage hilts this auction is
starting a bit higher than I normally would start it. (also for the ebay final fees) :rolleyes:

I hope everyone is liking the updated look and will be working on getting more systems
made and up for sale / auction here in the forum as well :wink:

Would this be the interest thread for a chassis kit for the vintage system (roman's grafted?)  If not, my apologies...feel free to point me in the right direction.  Thanks!

Looks incredible.  Please add me to your production list when ready for one of these Stainless Steel versions.  I sent you my request for a ANH fully complete version, but would like to change to ESB ;) 

thx

This chassis system is awesome. The attention to detail is incredible. From the design to the materials used it looks,and feels first rate. I looks, and feels like something out of the visual dictionary. Yoda knocked it out of the park! I hope he has something planned for the Last Jedi!

I'm also personally incredibly interested in getting a chassis for my graflex. I would prefer stainless steel but either would be greatly appreciated when kits become available again.

Do let me know if you are looking for a completed system or just a chassis for DIY?
Not sure about the DIY chassis right now but Feel free to PM message me about it.  :yoda:
