This is one of my personal sabers, I’ve had the hilt sitting around for literally years, picking away at completing it between clients builds.
The body of the saber is all one piece, the electronics are mounted on a custom 3d printed sled ..it’s got (2) older CF v4.2 boards I’ve had forever, and BBW tri-Rebels. I’ve got a cover over the battery compartment with JST connectors for the battery packs so I can change them out on the fly.
