Hanflex Graflex 2.0
« on: March 19, 2017, 02:09:35 PM »
Greetings,

So I finally got the install done on my Graflex 2.0 I have been working on.  This saber was a scratch/dent kit from TCSS and was made actually to go with my Ancient weapon font.  Essentially, this is a "what if" saber from an alternative ANH where Han is the force sensitive one and not Luke.  So I built the saber and the font around the concept of what would happen if Han received a Graflex and then maintained it and "upgraded" it as he did to the falcon.  The paint is modeled after the falcon and there is some age to the saber.  As Han rewired the saber to improve it, he ended up overheating it and he cut some venting into the grip.  It has the following:

Graflex 2.0 scratch/dent from TCSS
Tri-Cree EXP-2 Red orange/Red orange/White (FoC) - the falcon's cannons are redish
NBv 3
18650 3.7v battery from TCSS
28mm premium speaker from TCSS
3D printed chassis with illuminated (red 3mm led) crystal chamber (real quartz)
Red TCSS graflex card
Wanawanga ROTJ graflex lever (push to activate the saber)
Two of my custom fonts:  Ancient Weapon and Legendary Princess

Pics - they are not perfect, but I tried!  :grin:






















Thanks for Looking!

Nice backstory and super unique design. Haven't seen anything quite like that. I wonder if it would burn your hand with that exposed crystal chamber ;)
