First Ever Hfx Dooku Conversion and its brothers by LDM
« on: September 24, 2009, 02:17:15 AM »
...and away we go!

Here she is, the saber we all now know as the Hfx Dooku.  I would, first and foremost like to thank Grayven for his dis-assembly consult!   The conversion was difficult (the curve does not help) and the BH & hilt have to be heavily modified, but in the end it came out solid and relatively nice.  Re-attaching the grips is no walk in the park either!  It has a Seoul P4 Red (duh!) and an aluminum BH w/copper heatsink.  Enjoy!

BTW, be sure to watch for Gravy's US 1.1 Dooku conversion coming very soon!

These are up for sale in the Trade Federation. ;D

Here are a couple I did for Sithslayer1 and OBI-WAN KENOBI.

Sithslayer1's has a red P4 and Ultraedge

OBI-WAN's has a red Lux III

Both are honed to fit an ultraedge.

And I finally found the perfect thing to re-attach the grips~yay! ;D

Other than that they are stock
