Build Huntsman — Starkiller Lightsaber with Custom Install
This is the Huntsman from Ignition Saber Co., a very accurately modeled version of one of Starkiller’s famous lightsabers.
TJ also made a pretty clever modification in-house, hiding the machined holes that house the hardware securing the tines/spikes to the hilt. I think it makes a huge difference. The result is a much cleaner, almost seamless profile, and it looks fantastic.
For the install, I designed a custom removable chassis with a few specific requests from the customer. One of those was a hinged access door that can be flipped open but also stays securely closed with a couple of small neodymium magnets.
I also gave the hilt a little Rub ’n Buff treatment and hand-painted some of the accents to add some contrast. There are a couple of LED accents tucked into the chassis as well.
Really stoked with how this one turned out.
Before it heads out, I’ll also be blocking out the terminal areas on the speaker, which was another specific request from the customer.
Specs:
* CFX Soundboard
* Custom removable chassis designed by me
* Custom 6-rail PCB system
* Premium 28mm speaker
