"Valac" A Custom MHS Based Stunt Saber
« on: May 29, 2012, 09:05:27 PM »
Hello Saberfans!

Time for a simpler saber to come off the bench.

A stunt, to be exact. ;)

I was approached to make this saber by bobofet of the FXsabers Forum about the same time as I was asked to make Azaz'el. A low budget was extremely important, a long runtime a must... and surprisingly, he wanted the same weathering style as Azaz'el. So, we agreed upon a stunt setup, my Raxus Weathering™, and a nice sleek design. Yes, it is a pretty simple TCSS parts build, but the weathering certainly makes it one unique and cool looking saber if I do say so myself.

Official Specs:
- 100% TCSS MHS based hilt
- Raxus Weathering™
- 7.4V Li-ion 18650 2250ma pack
- Red Seoul P4
- 1000ma Buckpuck
- Lighted and custom weathered AV Switch.

Thanks for Looking!

Put some sound in this puppy. It deserves it.

That Raxus [tm] weathering really does look 'junkyard dog' eh? Well named and well done overall!
To DREAM the IMPOSSIBLE DREAM. To FIGHT the unbeatable foe. To BEAR with unbearable sorrow. To RUN where the brave dare not go. To RIGHT the unrightable wrong. To LOVE, PURE AND CHASTE, FROM AFAR [-sigh-]. To TRY, when your arms are too weary; to REACH the unreachable Star!... This is my Quest; To follow that Star, no matter how hopeless, no matter how far...

Sweet work, Sollus! Just because there has been a huge jump in the capabilities of sabers doesn't mean that things like this aren't still awesome! If the runtime on this one isn't good enough for him.....then.......I'm stumped!  :o  :o  :D

LOL, ya! One of my personal favorite sabers that I have is a stunt. I love the MHS pieces that were used. However, there really isn't any room at all for sound unless I find a Crystal Shard buried in my back yard.  :P

Another thumbs-up, Sollus! Congrats on developing an awesome weathering technique!

QFT! Love the weathering and that emitter! This has a genuine used weapon look and needs a PC2.0!

It is indeed probably the best looking stunt I saw here  :D
