Title: "Valac" A Custom MHS Based Stunt Saber
Post by: COUNT DOOKU 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.

That Raxus [tm] weathering really does look 'junkyard dog' eh? Well named and well done overall!

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!
