Genesis Custom Lightsabers are among the absolute best custom sabers.
Madcow gives excellent customer service.

Good luck with this run! Amazing hilt.

Rob, will these include a blade and stand? Also, will there be a choice to request  any weathering to add a slightly more ancient, careworn look? (not to the krayt "bone" handle, I'm thinking to the hilt  itself.)

Thank you again for making this run a reality!

- I'm exploring a stand - if it's a go it will be included in the price.
- No blade.
- Optional hard case;



Weathering is possible. I have not decided if I will offer that - but I'm leaning yes. Probably for a minor additional charge.

Sounds good, especially the weathering  option. Your weathering is some of the most realistic and authentic looking for that used weapon look, without being too exagerated, so this gives an already special hilt that special touch to be just a bit more unique and special to each owner IMO.

Thanks again.

No FoC on what would become my first CF saber is a dealbreaker. I love bane, I loooove the hilt and your work but that is like the cherry on the cake. Would you reconsider?

I believe Madcow mentioned that because of the inner space of the hilt, that there wouldn't be enough room to accommodate a FoC setup.

Awe man... I wanted this saber more than anything else on this forum. But I cannot afford this at all. I am jealous of every single person that gets one of these. Oh well, maybe I will win the lottery one day  ;)

My research has led me to believe that the protection citcuts inside the 2 CR123 size cells in the batt pack would shut it off when the flash occurs. Essentially that would make the saber have an extremely short run time. With a P4 red - it gets a decent runtime.
Also - the design inside is a tight fit - I could probably fit a power extender and extra wiring in there - but It's too much hassle when you multiply it by 10 sabers. I'm already going to be putting in many hours over 3 months to make this happen.

So... no - I won't reconsider.

That's cool, I will bide my time and await the appropriate saber for me. Thank you for your response MC. I'm a big fan.
