I have not seen "He whose name is red" define the context for this section as yet, so since it is open to posting, I just gotta know - Is this where we can come to find pics of customs that have been done, in order to get ideas for what we might want to do? Perhaps have Justin pop by once in awhile to let us know what's up with this exciting section of The Forge?

I have seen pictures of some of Justin's work on the Custom Saber Owners Facebook feed, but I could never find all of them to date. I have had folks who don't typically frequent this forum, nor the Facebook feed ask about them, but I could not point them to anything. I hope this will be the spot I can direct them to to answer all of their questions.
Imagine what you will know tomorrow....

Yeah I assume this section is related to Justin's custom shop.

A great way to see all the work of his posted on the Facebook group is to go to the group, go to the search box right above the "members" box on the sidebar where it says "Search this group." There, type in "Justin Polachek" and hit search. Automatically, it will bring up search results for "Sale Posts" and you won't see any results. No problem, just click on "All Posts" and ta-daa! Witness the greatness of Justin's wonderful customs. He often posts his customs with detailed information on each saber.

I ordered from him about 2 weeks ago, maybe a little less. Haven't gotten any updates yet, but I know he's been busy. Hopefully by the end of this week he'll have my black chrome Vengeance finished, I'm very excited. Seeing all his amazing work only makes me more excited. That guy is really good at what he does.

I have not yet commissioned it yet, but I too have a black chrome saber in mind. I am waiting to see if the saber I REALLY want gets released or not, then it is full steam ahead!

Yeah, I can't wait to see mine. I'm tempted to shoot him an email and ask him for a time estimate!

Is that the "220" level polish that I have heard about?

Hey Brax the powder-coated part is 220 but not sure about the shrouds. They are more of a brushed look not a high polish. Not exactly certain what techniques were used. I believe they were painted then sanded down. Might put a buff on them later for more shine. Considering anodizing pommel and upper shroud withe copper finish. Lots of ideas, I'm thrilled with the way it came out, thanks Justin.

Shattered weathering, was wanting a old beat-up saber. It will have cracks, wear and tear. Etc.
The second one is a warrior tier with a 12w+ yellow led, and a pulsar board. Gives me a recharge port and a lit av switch. The led also pulses on and off.
