Re: V2 WIP...updated with a thinner neck and final weathering

Amazing!! The weathering and thin neck are super cool! If this saber doesn't get a US 2.5, I'm gonna donate one to you. :D

Thanks,

not getting a 2.5 so go ahead and donate :D.  I only have one US board and its going in my prophecy.

For now it will be getting the ultimate.  I will be installing a CF in it.  I may or may not keep the CF in it but for now it will have a CF.  If the CF stays it will have a RGGB with the two G in series and B as a clash flash but I have to wait until I can get the bare LED because I do not want to take the chance of taking the LED off the base of the LED/star I have.  Until then it will have a P4G (and will keep that if I go back to a US board later). 

A CF? Even better!

Excellent. This saber DESERVES a big fat slice of extra buttered toast. Looking forward to the vid, dude.

That looks sick. Amazing work! :o

And BTW, if you really have your heart set on putting a US in it, I'll trade you one for your CF. :D

OK well its almost there.  I have it all wired up and ready to go.  I just have to wait on my LED.  I should have it by Thursday at the latest.  I decided to go ahead and show a short video of it.  It pretty much just shows how I have the recharge port/kill switch and the buttons (plus the power LED).  In the front of the clamp I have a red LED for the low power indicator.

The switch is a little different set up.  There is no physical switch but a plate system I came up with.  I like how it works and it saves a lot of space.  Time will tell if it will hold up with use but it should.

anyway here is the little video.

Let me know what you think.

Oh and I haven't drilled the holes in the pommel yet and this thing is loud.  I even turned the pot down a little because it was just way too loud (maybe I am just too old  ;D).

Great switch plate setup. That's just how LDM has my V2 wired...the activation button at the bottom and the aux. at the top. IMO, if you own a V2 with a C.F. or an U.S. this is the ONLY way to make it so it's accurate. That is a SPECTACULAR V2, my friend!
