custom pommel, custom emitter (one of my favorites).. none of which have ever been made as far as I know..they are just renders made in paint..and just based of the submitters imagination... make sure you get quotes first from whomever you get this stuff made from.

also the switch hole is under the clamp?  on purpose? a plan perhaps?

and what are you going to be using the large I.D. rubber belt part?

I'm going to be sending an email to Tim to start...find out if he'll do the custom parts from the builder...I'm going to see if he'll do a 2" extension with the fins milled out and anodised in black..as to why I put the hole under the clamp....I'm hoping to use some kind of a micro switch setup right there.....  :D

good to hear.. I was just trying to let ya know about a possible errors or troubles you might have.. but it seems you already have aplan (re: the button/switch hole...etc)  and the fins part..instead of the rubber belt piece.

Looks nice.  8) 

And you have plenty of time to work on the hilt before the US 2.0 is unleashed.  ;)

I like very much.

A little "Homage" To Erv and Madcow with a twist! 8)  I foresee a Cyan LED in that... maybe A Seoul p4 White. Just something about that hilt says Adegan...

I would execise caution with recharge ports to begin with on an Ultrasound.  I know it can be done, but...

let me/us know what Tim's talking about for that BladeHolder and the pommel..   Id like to get both of those myself.

I use both all the time in the SaberBuilder for most of my mock-ups..

Was there an issue with using a recharge port on an Ultrasound?  I forget.....

Not that I know of. I have had a saber with the US 1.1 and a recharge port, and it never had a problem.

Or are you saying to be cautious with the 2.0 and recharge ports

I can only guess that the potential problem might in not wiring the port properly,  or maybe not wiring it for a "kill" while charging....?

Until it has been succesfully accomplished, tread lightly.  I am not saying anything bad here, but it is a total redesign. 

It shouldn't be any issue, but you can never be too safe.

I guess what I am saying is that you don't want to go borking up a brand new board.  This is not saying anything bad about the product or anyone attempting this.  Okay? :)  Just that it really wasn't designed with that in mind...

And yes I have a recharge port on an Ultrasound right now...  But given the issues we had with reverse voltage on the Ultrafire non-protected batteries and people frying their boards the first time around... You get my point.

Hooking up a port needs to be done right... it was merely a cautionary tip more than anything else, for those less experienced in doing such things...

I was thinking about this simply for the fact that I don't want to open it back up after it goes together.....I know it's not a big deal but I'm just tired of unscrewing pommels and pulling out speakers and batteries... other then for long term storage that is..... :D and of course I'd run the wiring by you guys for a safety check before I started if you don't mind..... 8)
