Here is our latest creation, a simple stunt style saber using a few MHS pieces and an "economy" ;) Hasbro Board.

Powder coated in mirror black and Black Lave, this menacing saber utilizes a LUX III Red LED, 4 AAA battery pack, premium speaker and cool little momentary button.

Pretty Loud for a Cheap Hasbro Board too, I just wish I could disable that Clash on Flash! :-\

This one will come to the convention in Baton Rouge with us as part of the Sentinel Stunt Saber series, unless of course someone here wants to buy it before then.  ;) ;)  ;D

The Economy Hasbro Board will be standard in the Sentinel Series, but the customer always has the option to upgrade to a better board and optional Quick Disconnects, covertec knobs, (Master Jedye may put one on this anyway, .....oooooo, we should paint The Covertec knob Lava Red TOO).  ;) We have a few MR/HFX boards and these can be installed pretty quickly, especially since I'm prepping the boards ahead of time.

Our goal here is to offer sabers at a lower price at the convention to get other people interested in the hobby, or in Star Wars. We will still offer the higher end sabers and will have some on display. So people can see and hear the differences, and they will have several choices. It'll be cool to see people buying sabers who ONLY went there for the Renaissance aspect of it.

This saber is a tribute to the original Salem, one of the first Sabers I made many moons ago, (or so it seems).

Hope you all enjoy it! Here are some pictures:

   

   

   



I like that Black Lava!  ;D ;D ;D

Nice looking saber. The coloring is really nice. Reminds me of some guy with a mask who likes Nov 5th.

Very nice looking guys. You keep astounding me!

Call me a redneck, but couldn't you (very gently), cut the clash sensor in two? I am assuming it is on the soundboard.

Thanks, guys!  Actually the powdercoat color is "Black Lava" ...great color.  Click the link to see the description of how this color changes once it's taken outside!
This is a saber that "feels" nice to hold...very sleek.  And this might be the 4th or 5th time I've used DC's salem grip peice on a saber so I think it's a winner!
And as far as the "ecomony" board...Well, we heard from lots of people...some love and must have great sound in their saber and for others...it's an afterthought.  Nice if it has it, but not a requirement.
These boards help fill that niche, giving people something without spending alot to get it.  ;D

Oh, Darn, ...BLACK LAVA, ....I'll edit that in a minute.


 Caden, As far as I know, ...the flash on clash is on the board, never got around to taking it apart to see what happens, though I have my suspicions. ;)

Yep, ...a Salem part strikes again, LOL. ;D ;D, Im thinking we should put a smaller one on the backside too!

Thank guys for the compliments, we appreciate them.

Stick around, ...we have a few more coming out shortly!

Thanks you all.

I'm thinking maybe Master Jedye would be willing to make a smaller second grip and we can replace that button with a tcss guarded button, ..we may just very well be onto something.

Yep, ...let's add a little more Black Lava to this one!
