I just saw these at a show. Very nice! This guy also does custom sabers if you wanted to draw a design and send it to him. He sells individual parts too. www.creativeforce.web.com/ |

Nice stuff....I bought a Park's Saber and like the look, but as we all know....in order to be a Jedi you have to make your own lightsaber!! My handmade lightsaber doesn't look as nice as the Parks...but it is something I made from nothing but junk.
If anyone is interested, one of my tasks at work (my "real" job is a Warranty Administrator for a Chrysler Dealer) is to scrap warranty parts.....you would be surprised at the odd looking gizmo's on today's cars...anyway......if you are making your own lightsaber and would like some "gizmo's", I can send you a box of sensors, switches, gizmos and such to look over and see if there is something you can use. If you can't use the stuff, then you can just toss it.

Hi Xana, were you at the show on Sat? I was there on Sun.I almost got one of these sabers, they're really nice, I especially liked the blades, but decided that I really couldn't afford 1 this week, so I got their brocure, I will have 1 soon I think. I thought the yoda sized kiddy blades were too cute! The guy was really nice, and very helpful too.

Yes, I was there. Weren't they nice? The double bladed one was great! I am seriously considering that one. He takes custom orders too, so if I wanted to ask him this or that design he would make it. And he was nice, too. I liked the Wolverine blades! Those were neat. Decisions, decisions......... I'm still thinking about it. Eventually I will probably just buy one. I just have to get around to deciding which one! lol!
The Park Saber ones are nice too. It's so hard to judge over the internet. I like to look at and feel things before I but them. Light Tech had some net sabers at a show I went to, but I haven't seen them since. Their sabers had light up LED's too. Very cool!

It was only a matter of a couple of weeks....
My Park saber is not a working saber though...just one of the prop sabers.
I did make my own saber...it looks pretty cool, but is very heavy!! I used to have a picture of my saber as my icon here on the boards...but problems with the Chicago Force members page where the photo resides has made the icon/picture disappear here on the Assembly boards...you can check out the picture of my home made saber on the Jedi Assembly member's page...I think it is picture #3 under my name....

Ryss....
thanks for the "everything you ever wanted to know about lightsabers" site.....bookmarked that one!
Will come back to it and print out some of the stuff.
I don't do much surfing because my computer is always crashing.....
great to have someone pick out the good stuff so I can eliminate much swearing at my computer!
