Greetings Jedi,
I am a lifelong Star Wars fan. Episode IV A New Hope was released the day after my 14th Birthday. My folks took me to the theater the day after it opened and I was mesmerized. I had been a sci fi geek before that but Star Wars was a whole new galaxy and I was hooked.
Earlier that spring I was seriously injured playing baseball and had to have reconstructive surgery on my left hip the first week in May. They let me out of the Hospital just in time for my birthday.
Saw it 7 more times that summer all the while hobbling around on crutches. Couldn't do much of anything else so that movie saved my sanity.
I am currently working on my saber and costume. I have the shell for the Hilt about ready for the electronics package but I need to draw up the schematics and put together the board for the LED drivers.
My tunic and robe are in the pattern and material hunting stage at this point.
In addition to being a raging Science Fiction geek, I also build scale models, war game, and play RPGs.
Hope to make some new friends here among like minded folks.
Respectfully,
Wis'do Egsan

Welcome!
What a great tale! I, too, have had Star Wars save my sanity on many, many occasions!
Feel free to look around, make yourself at home, and feel free to ask any questions!
