Excellent job on the conversion.  I am impressed with everyone taking the grab bags to the next level.  I hope you are able to get your FOC fixed.

Yeah, the ingenuity everyone expresses on their own sabers is pretty impressive around here.
I think I need to order a new clash sensor, or just position it better. I definitely want a new speaker too.

Fantastic.

How much Cram-fu did you have to use? lol

Point for sure, everything looks great, I love that the wrap doesn't come all the way around to connect; gives it the look like your character only had that lying around.

Lol, not too much Cram fu, there's just some tricky spacing really.

I do like how the leather wrap kinda looks improvised, and it literally was all I had lying around lol. Scraps from my ren-faire bags I made.

That's the same route I went with my leather wrap; it's just scraps from some other thing you made.

Also for some reason, this really makes me want a new CG saber.......IDK why. lol

Green is an amazing color for sabers. Though I'm impressionable, I've been obsessed with the green lightsaber since I first saw ROTJ. I also have to get a bigger collection so I can experience more colors. I think my next saber is going to be a DVA consular with obsidian.

Be sure to get the quick disconnects so that you can purchase all the colored LED's without having to get a new hilt each time.

Yeah, that's definitely the plan, not that I wouldn't want more sabers lol, but my pockets aren't that deep.

Awesome job! I've got a v2 SI and a hasbro Obi-Won I've been meaning to splice together. Mind telling me what you used to do the wiring? Or even write a tut if you're up to it!
