Lightsabers & Blasters Luke's ROTJ saber...

i've been looking everywhere for ways to make this from hardware material but i cant find any tuts for it...

please send some

 

im looking now.

if anything-consider modifying an Obi-wan ANH saber tutorial.

 

I've been doing some research into this as well and it looks like your best bet is going to be basing it off of an Old Ben saber. Apparently, Luke's stunt saber in ROTJ was the same one used by Alec Guiness is ANH, so you won't have to make many changes.

Big Yellow Box has a "Ben-inspired" saber, and partsofsw.com has some pretty good reference pics. Good luck, and be sure to show us what you come up with!

 

well... i was actually gonna try my instincts and see how that goes

just walk around my local Trader Horn and check it out

 

Luke ROTJ lightsaber plans

For u, or anyone else, click on the picture through the link and you'll find a copy of plans to that saber. Incase you want a machined one.

 

actually I have made a hardware luke saber for a friend for halloween it was pretty good.

 

do you remember what you used

I made this Luke ROTJ saber about 2 years ago, i posted it here before, only in the fan films section.
I made it on a lathe out of aluminium and its made of about 5 seperate parts - then screwed together.

If you need any advice - pm me, i would be happy to help

 

I remember using some kind of oil thing for the grips section thats about it, I'll try to look for some pics of it.

 

I haven't done it myself because I'm still building the ESB saber, but if you can spend a little money on the pieces, you can make it with a sink tail piece, a sink knob, a graflex clamp, a circuit board ender from blast-tech, a wooden dowel that fits perfectly inside the tail piece, a pvc pipe, some black d rings, some metal washers (about 1.5 inches across), and a hose connector. This way you can put a rod inside and fight with it. I got the idea from a combination of two tutorials on big yellow box. The one that looks kind of like the ROTJ saber and the obiwan saber. The metal washers have to be able to fit around the pvc pipe and the pvc pipe can be glued or screwed into the wooden dowel. I don't know how to connect the hose connector to the pvc pipe because i haven't done it myself yet.

 

All I want to know is what I could use that look's like Luke's R.O.T.J. light saber emitter. Because I want to make my own light saber hilt.

 

I mean really it looks cool.

 

I have used every search engine known to man but not one of them say what I could use.

 

darthnave, I can tell your new here. Please do not double post. Press the edit button on your orignal post.

 

oh alright

 

Any way does anyone know what I could use that could replicate luke's R.O.T.J.'s lightsaber emitter?

 

Made this about 3 yrs ago for a friend

Made from layers of pvc, and a large washer.

 

Alright thanks.

 

Sooo now what?

 

Its a bad picture of the emitter, I should have taken a staight on shot, this shot just make it look really bad. I since took apart the saber and I have no idea where the emitter is, all I remember is I took differenece diameter pvc, and thicknesses, and interlayed them then glued them in place, and put a large washer, I believe on top, hardly accurate, but I years ago, I'm sure if you used the same method it could look much better now.

 

Alrighty then.

 

So ummm now what?

 

What else do you need to know?

 

How about the dohicky on the bottom? (The end cap)
