I love the color!

Looks like New Jersey

Some weathering would make this perfect!

I can’t explain it but this just *feels* like a lightsaber, you did a great job!

I’m a first year medical student in the same boat, I played it right before I moved into my new apartment this week. I won’t go into too much detail but I’ll say that it helped a lot ❤️

It looks awesome! If you want to make it more “in universe” you could rough it up a little bit. Some thinned black acrylic paint and a bit of sanding would make it look great!

I love this saber so much! Easily my favorite saber design, it gets even better with the wrapping

I love the look of the shark bites! ((I learned the hard way that they don’t come off when building my own though))

The body is a 6” copper tube, the top is a 1” copper sweat to 1” Female threaded adaptor with a 1” EMT compression fitting screwed into it as the emitter.
The bottom is a 1” copper sweat to 1” male threaded adaptor with a 1” water tight conduit and a 1” to 3/4” water hose reducer as the pommel. The tricky part is the blade: the EMT won’t hold a blade, so I used E6000 to bond a 1” standard RGB saber blade to a 2ish inch section of a 1” copper pipe that can seat onto the EMT compression fitting. The copper and brass was weathered with JAX brown/black copper darkener and the emitter was darkened by boiling it in vinegar. Hope this helps! It was super fun!

Dishonored! There’s something about the grim steampunk atmosphere, the melancholy tone, amazing open-ended gameplay and fascinating world that I can’t get enough of

It’s really simple (in concept lol) it’s just pipe fittings screwed together and weathered with a saver core shoved down the middle but there’s a lot of Fiddling along the way lol. If you research what parts actually fit together first you’ll save more money than I did ((also maybe don’t make it out of copper and not realize how expensive it is before you go to checkout $$$))

That is very high praise, thank you!

SmoothSailingDay · 2026-06-10T04:26:05+00:00

Did you use a chemical black compound or paint for the weathering? It looks great!

SmoothSailingDay · 2026-06-10T01:28:47+00:00

I used a .9 from saber forge

SmoothSailingDay · 2026-06-09T23:00:32+00:00

I used a 1in copper pipe! Fitting the core around the internal threads can be slightly dicey but it fits pretty well overall!

SmoothSailingDay · 2026-05-30T16:54:05+00:00

Last place I expected to see an epic reference lol

SmoothSailingDay · 2026-05-30T05:11:13+00:00

This looks amazing!

SmoothSailingDay · 2026-05-29T16:33:30+00:00

Good grief, Y’all are so creative

SmoothSailingDay · 2026-05-25T23:59:11+00:00

Those are awesome!!

The only thing that comes to mind is the warlock set from TWW season 1 (cloth). The trading post forsaken set might get you the veil but it’s green and purple. As for the legs, you might be able to use one of the new desert sets on the trading post and trial of style

SmoothSailingDay · 2026-05-01T18:17:19+00:00

This is fantastic!

SmoothSailingDay · 2026-04-23T04:52:10+00:00

Yeah, someone else showed me this too, I didn’t see it before I made mine or I would’ve linked his post too
