I am headed down a similar path, my 2.0 should be shipped around the end of the month.- first build. I am just waiting to for cf8 to get restocked at TCSS. I the video series Darth Nelo Angelo suggested is well worth the watch - very thorough. Are you going for 1in blade adapter?
May the force be.... don't do that.. not on the rug, man

I built mine from the shipments at the beginning of 2016, but I ordered a few extra things, a Actual Graflex clamp, some replica screws, glass eye, and converted it to a 1 inch blade, the TCSS one not the VV one, and I went with a Prizm v4. this year I'm waiting on the K4,DV6, and Mpp 2.0 kits to arrive.

I would like to go with the 1 inch adapter since it would match my other sabers, but I haven't decided for sure.....

If you go with the red button activation, the 1" adapter will make your life waaayyy easier, I highly recommend it.

Even tho this saber is not the easiest build, it's a great way to start off since there's so much ressources for it everywhere. You should definitly check out the facebook group "Graflex addicts", with just that and the "Let's build a Graflex" YouTube videos, you'll be all set to go!

This was also my first build last year and I can tell you this series of videos for "Let's Build a Graflex" will not only take you step by step for any mods that need to be done but I've referenced it several time doing my next 2 builds I've done since then. Use small gauge wire. I think he recommends 28 or 30 but I would go with 30. You'll need the space, especially if you do a crystal chamber. I opted for doing 2 activations, one under the red button and one in the clamp followed by the aux also in the clamp (not as hard as it sounds). These videos are great though and you should do a preview to make sure you have all materials ready. He lets you know exactly what you'll need for the build. Can't wait to see it!
