It's beautiful. It fits my hand. It hangs better on my belt. It's great.

Gotta give 'nuff respect to Ryan at Random Sabers. He made this possible.
I think I might try to greeble the control box a little, but the approach I used last time won't work. Control box is way too small for a SO-DIMM. I'm thinking ICs clipped off of a non-working circuit board.
This is sort of a before-and-after pic.
Now you can see the reason why people were talking about "wookiee sabres" with regard to v1.0, and how these are just more in scale with me. The drain-pipe sabres would be just fine for a taller person with bigger hands. These are more like it for me.
Of course, I'll be recording the build of the left handed sabre.
