I'm planning on heading into to Minotaur some time soon to pick up the Yoda lightsaber which is all that's left around these days. Good to see I'm not the only Star Wars geek around LOL

Pfft that's nothing. I've got an AT-AT in the backyard and I'm sure my neighbour is Chewbacca.

Nice to see I am not the only Star Wars geek here.

I was making Star Wars replica movie props from the same kinds of things George Lucas made his from years before Master Replicas hit the scene. Here's a link to my Vader "A New Hope" lightsabre made from a real 1930's large format camera flashgun ......

http://www.1001hobbies.info/1001hobbies_018.htm

I haven't done the pages on it yet but you can see the finished prop. On this same page you can click on the link to the page of the Luke Skywalker "A New Hope" lightsabre for details on it.

If you click on the "Replica Movie Props" link in the navigation bar you can also see the machined lightsabres I made, but again they need the pages done for them yet. It's a pretty big site. Anyways, you can see the construction of the Stormtrooper blaster (E-11) I made from a real machine gun and Han solo's DL-44 blaster there as well. Those pages are done. I hope you fellow geeks enjoy them.
