The sabers have been confirmed being built around a 3/4 tube.

UltraEdge does not come in a 3/4 size, so please refrain from asking for it.

3/4 polycarbonate or nylon blades will be included.


boring or Honing out the blade holders to 1 inch is most likely not going to be an option.

hey, thanks for providing this service...when they come in, you'll have to provide a list of those people who want them upgrade to working sabers and just mailed to you directly...instead of sending to them, and they sending to you...if we work together to be more effecient, things will go quicker!  :)

korbanth,

Please send the sabers directly to their purchasers. As a group, decided this is best for everyone involved.

It protects you the manufacturer from paypal claims.
The clients get to hold their sabers, so they can see the quality. Also, they may not want them converted all at once.
I could go on, but you get the point.

We are sorry, if this is an inconvenience to our international clients.

Will the Master replica Yoda soundcard require the saber to be machined or will it fit?

I provided the dimensions for the inside of the hollow hilt run, and those experts say it should not be any problem...

Confirmed, the Yoda soundboard is just under .85" wide, and the tube itself for these sabers is .75" wide (inner diameter), so the board will fit with minor boring. Snugly, but it will fit nonetheless.

And remember, the soundboard and parts costs are NOT included in the conversion price, but can be provided in some cases.

I'm curious, I have a custom parks hilt, heavily influenced by the arcwave. The electronics popped out of the back when I plugged the blade in, so first I have to save the money to replace the pommel and the emitter, but how much would it be, since I have an empty hilt right now to install an LED?

You would need to PM one of us with the details (and preferably pictures).

i have had a Korbanth graflex 2.0 for a LONG time just sitting on my dresser empty.  :sad:
its laying next to my Korbanth LS6 hero conversion LDM did years ago (THANKS! still running strong on the PC 1.6!)

I'm curious if somebody could do a NBv4 in my graflex 2.0 before TLJ hits theaters? i don't have any electronics for it at all.
also have a vintage graflex ANH with TGS socket, sitting empty, already have a PC3 and CEX ready to go in that, if you're feeling froggy  :wink:
might donate my (admittedly sad shape) MachinedFX starkiller and a 90% finished MHS Mara Jade for installer to keep?
