Title: My Yoda Initiate V3 Post by: JdiKnhtJMH on October 26, 2017, 04:30:35 AM Got a V3 to add to my collection and decided to make it into a Yoda. I'd practiced a bit with less expensive versions, but this one was for me, so I went all out. I machined in a window in the emitter, then painted that and the middle section black. I added a shroud using PVC and then put on black grips with automotive moulding and finished it with a covertec wheel. I'm really pleased with his saber.

You really turned that hilt into something completely different! Title: Re: My Yoda Initiate V3 Post by: BatMike90 on October 27, 2017, 10:21:35 AM Strong with the Force, you are!
Awesome job, you did! Point, you get! Title: Re: My Yoda Initiate V3 Post by: JdiKnhtJMH on October 30, 2017, 01:55:06 AM Thanks everyone! It doesnt show but I also filled the hole in the pommel with a TCSS pommel piece, I'm really loving this little saber. I'll probably add a 32 inch blade later.
