Was tinkering with my earlier "Adherent" design, and came up with this that I quite liked:




Only problem with flipping Switch 8 is:



Control boxes bother me, but that little piece drives me nuts. If that could be kept in the standard orientation, I would actually consider owning this saber. It's just not as exciting with Switch 8 in the standard orientation.

Hi Borommakot,

Nice developments on your design. Regarding the switch guard plate, that bothers me sometimes but I noticed on the Promo picture of the Rebel inspired hilt used to announce the first ASP's to be shipped the plate had been rotated 180 degrees. There appears to be a retention screw holding it onto the switch body, but I am not sure if it really is reversible or was just one of those instances where someone at SF may have tinkered with it. I have included a couple of pics to illustrate.

It may be possible to rotate the plate.

Oh, great find, For! If that turns out to be the case, this saber may end up on my shortlist.

Hi Borommakot,

I can't be 100% certain it can be done but it looks possible, I hope so for your plans!

kind regards,

About to bombard the thread with some more designs!

Incoming!

Omen (had to use the Sinister Prophecy emitter eventually) :P :





I still love the resonant design I did much more, but here's a simple pike:

Vanguard:







I'll have another one in the near future to share.

I shall now return to my regularly scheduled studies :)

I really like the Vanguard, Savannah. It is simple. But it also is elegant. Awesome job on it. Love seeing the 3 versions of it.

Ooooh, that pike is beautiful! I would love to see a pair of characters dueling with those weapons!

Hi Savannah95,

Young Padawan, you are strong in the Force and designing Sabers! Vanguard looks eeevil in the BHC black! But I love the use of the two wrapped bodies between the Sinister Prophecy emitters on Omen. I can't decide which Omen I prefer, so I'll have one of each. More great work, thanks for sharing (talking of which there's a new meme in Something..New! for you!)

kind regards,

For Tyeth

By way of update, I encountered a KS backer today on FB whose saber using this switch had arrived and he confirmed that a screw secures that plate and allows it to be flipped independent of the rest of the switch section :)

Between the Something New and Hilt Design threads, you sure do keep me busy with lots of reading For Tyeth! :P

Here are a couple more I came up with...

Command:

I like the Eclipse, Savannah. It has a really sleek design. Very nicely done.

Hi Savannah95, Everyone,

Oooooh! Emitters as Pommels, I like those designs. I do like Commander and that you always post the different versions of each Saber design. If I recall correctly a fellow member commissioned a custom Dissident that looks very much like your dual-tone Eclipse (he had to have work done on the emitter and pommels to get the same look) and both yours and his Saber look stunning.

Thanks for giving me something to look at instead!

Savannah95, echoing MommyHoldMe's comment, such a great eye you have with the offering that is Eclipse. Loving the Dual-Tone and Black Finishes, I'd buy those. High following of interest with these New Pop-Up Design Factories. Great creativity!

I expect to get tired of thin necks at any moment, but in the mean time, here's another one! "Judicator", perhaps we might have seen something like this if Mace Windu had been a fan of the thin neck.

Whipped something up, but undecided about blade colour.

Awesome job Wilco, I like both. Though I gravitate towards the black. Nice creation my friend.

That's a nice design, very clean and has a balanced feel to it!

As far as blade colors, what's great about designing your own (and especially with such a nice design you just made) is that just about any available color works well! I'd say go with what you like the most. I haven't seen a bad color/hilt combo on here!

I guess if I were to receive this saber in both finishes, I'd probably get medium blue with the standard and indigo with the black. I tend to deviate towards cool colors like blue and green anyway :P

This is one of the first ones I did and kept coming back to. Ended up ordering the weathered version from the Indiegogo campaign.


After looking through this and the themed hilt thread I decided to do this emitter pommel mod.


Hope you like my design I plan on working on more.
