I haven't actually, but that would be interesting. I would have to look up the specs on it, but it would cost a lot to produce it in steel because of the size so it would probably have to be plastic unfortunately.
Plastic is fine... the pistol I have is a plastic spring operated one. |

I am intrigued by the blade plug designs and the guarded switch cover.
On the guarded switch cover, is it fitted to "snap on" or does it require glue ?

It does require glue. It wasn't thick enough to design with a snap-on feature unfortunately. There are certain printing guidelines for the products. I used superglue on mine and it holds great. you just have to be sure to ge the glue all the way to the edges of the switch and make sure its centered. |

Very nice! Is there a particular saber that is designed to fit on? The blade plugs look awesome too.
Btw, what program do you use for your modelling?

I felt a great disturbance in the force as if millions of nerds cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.
Integrity can accommodate the inadvertent error and the honest difference of opinion; it cannot accommodate deceit or subordination of principle.

Thank you! Any of the sabers with a 1.45" outer diameter, i.e. any of the standard V3 sabers up to the up to the SI's and others that don't have embellishments, such as the Catalysts and War Glaives. PM sent. |

Looks awesome! The list of stuff to get is getting bigger.  You planning on any more shrouds in the future?  |

Looks awesome! The list of stuff to get is getting bigger. You planning on any more shrouds in the future? As of right now this will be the only body shroud. I am still deciding on what to do for emitter shrouds. I'm working on a new part of the shop right now that I'm hoping to launch this weekend so it will be taking up all of my (3D modeling) time. You will definitely see it posted here when something new is offered Will this shroud fit on a initiate V3?
Yes! I made sure this shroud was short enough and wide enough to fit on all the standard V3 models from the Initiates up through the SI's. I believe the Initiate V3 is 9.5" long and this shroud comes in just under 8". |

Update on the two blade plugs I ordered. The plastic absorbed the paint too much so I am going back to the drawing board. I'll work on sanding, applying a primer paint, the paint again. Once done I'll post pics.

I guess the polished plastic tends to work better with painting since the unpolished is more porous. I used a few coats of Krylon spray paint on my polished models and it worked fine. Excited to see what you've done to them |

Can that shroud fit an Overlord? Would look awesome on an Overlord. =] Now I kind of want a Dominix V3 though.  What size set screws would you recommend for this? |

Yeah I'm gonna get me a Guardian Blue Aeon V3 and then your shroud and do a testing to see how it looks, probably do the black finish shroud. Can't wait to see what other designs you have in mind though. =]

Doh. That's my mistake. I should have gotten the polished plastic material. I am sure I can work with what I have. |
