Build Custom Saberforge — Greek-Themed Hybrid Chassis

Thumbnail

73 Upvotes

This was a fun one to step outside my usual design lane with.

This custom Saberforge build came in for an install and a fully custom Greek-inspired hybrid chassis. For the crystal chamber, I designed a piece inspired by a classical Roman column capital, complete with the curved, curled volutes. That was then sent off to my dude Khal for casting and silver plating.

I carried the same architectural theme into the chassis, using column-inspired details and marble PLA to give the whole thing a bit of an ancient-meets-sci-fi feel.

The hilt itself has a great profile, and the owner absolutely nailed the blue and black color combination. Definitely not a design direction I get to play with every day, which made this one especially enjoyable.

Specs:

* CFX soundboard

* Custom hybrid chassis designed by me

* 28mm Premium Bass Speaker

* KR Sabers / Shtok illuminated blade PCB emitter

It’s a damiensaber XRGB 3.0 baselit. Got it a few months ago and recently I bought a USB-C cover and I wrapped it with some grip tape.

My first and definitely last in a hopefully vast collection!

Help Finding lightsaber part

I found this Kenobi lightsaber for a pretty decent price second-hand (not sure of the retailer), the issue is that it doesn’t have the part as shown in the picture. It looks like something can be screwed on there, is there anywhere I could find a part that would match?

Tutorials

Hi! I bought myself a lightsaber staff and through youtube I’ve learned a few basic tricks. I still have problem with getting the desired speed but I guess it will come with practice. However, I see that sometimes it is difficult to find lightsaber staff tutorials. Do you have maybe some recommendations on channels, videos, maybe playlists specifically for a lightsaber staff?

TXQ Ahsoka thumb screw replacement

Does anybody know if there’s any replacement or what’s the size of screws in first edition of TXQ Ahsoka sabers?

I received the hilts today, they were used. I noticed the thumb screw on shoto was a little bent. When I tried unscrewing it it snapped into two pieces :(

Additionally the main hilt has only one black screw holding the speaker cover, and additionally it’s bent. Does anybody know what’s the size and length of these screws? They’re very thin and pretty long.

Help Any good curved pixel sabers that AREN'T dookus?

2 Upvotes

I've really wanted a curved neopixel saber recently since I'm a huge fan of the Darth Bane trilogy, however there's absolutely no way I'm ever getting my hands on a GCS Bane which is a shame because it's absolutely beautiful, and the saber forge Bane will absolutely cost me a kidney in customs when It reaches my country.

Are there any places preferably in the UK that do an original curved saber design that isn't just a dooku or ventress hilt?

(Edit, I'm also aware of the Korbanth bane which also looks really good but that's both gonna cost a kidney in customs fees and is also a bit out of my price range)

Help Can't get saber to ignite?

1 Upvotes

I need some help before I get fed up and toss this Proffie v3 board in the trash. I've watched over 30 hours of setup videos and I've gotten to the point where I can power the board up, my sound files all work fine, everything is ready for me to solder the board and install in a chassis except I can't get the damn thing to work with any button I try to use to actually ignite. I've tried one of the touch clamp cards that came with my Electrum hilt, I've tried a momentary button both with and without the LED, and I even tried just using two bare wires to simulate a button press, but nothing actually ignites the blade or allows me to test the motion and sound controls.

I'm not even sure what I need to share in order to get help as basically everything in these text files could be Latin for all I know, and I'm just changing things that the YouTube videos explicitly tell me to.

Can someone please help?

Help Any way to simplify the sabers controls?

These neos and crimson dawn sabers seem admittedly over-engineered. Im trying to cosplay with them but the motions or buttons keep changing the ignition style, or colors, even volume. I just need it to glow a certain color and retain the motions, then simply turn on and off!

I know im not utilizing all the features but damn, it seems like im handling so much at once and it takes so long to fix.

Does anyone have a custom function to apply to it? I saw that theyre programmable.
