Yeah I can see that being a problem. Big companies have a buffer if payments aren’t made.
That's I wondered about some kind of nonrefundable digital "gift card" or voucher. |

I'd like to see some type of payment plan or layaway system implemented. I know those can be troublesome for companies especially small ones. Another option would be a "gift card". Another company (non lightsaber) had something like this. It was an online gift card that you could add money to. You could of course just put money away but, in my own experience trying that, to many times something comes up and that is the first cash dipped into. By it being held in something that could only be used in Ultrsabers it would be easier...I think.
I wouldn't hold your breath for that. It's way, way easier for a small company to just let you do the same thing with your own credit card than to setup and manage their own system to do it. |

it'd be interesting if they put up a live stream of the build shop so we can see stuff being built... maybe even catch a glimpse of our own order. Nothing too zoomed in, just a fly-in-the-wall type thing so folks can see their mad rush 'in person'

Making another push for these.  (love it, even if it only would be black anodized by UltraSabers) I would push for this design. (too many pointy bits for myself, but to each their own) (really looks nice, but the grip looks like it would hurt, like cheese grater damage). If UltraSabers went for this, I can foresee a large market for it. |

Ummmm........no. (love it, even if it only would be black anodized by UltraSabers) I would push for this design.
Actually, this was inspired by a fluke when FT was doing a copper skin amongst trees. The copper came acquired a woodgrain pattern that looked very noce. THIS was the realization of a take on my inspiration from the fluke crossed with his dark side variant: Ebony body with polished Nickel accents.  So shmexy. (really looks nice, but the grip looks like it would hurt, like cheese grater damage). If UltraSabers went for this, I can foresee a large market for it.
The grip isn't terribly far away from that of the Fallen. This was a For Tyeth/Psychosith collaboration that I requested tweaks on. |

The gnurled-type grip always looks sharp when its got a polished look - For did a fantastic job with that render! As Logos said, fully realized it would be similar to the Fallen grip - or that of most store bought titanium flashlights.  I have such a soft spot for that design - thought up by TheDutchman, sketched by me, rendered by For Tyeth, more modifications suggested by Logos, and fully rendered by For Tyeth once more. Its the ultimate US - community built saber in my eyes |

I think we can shore up the numbers with this one. |

I still would like to see a hilt along the line of Sifo-Dyas's from the clone wars. It just calls to me.  All credit to the designer. This is not my render. I see it as having more concave shields on the emitter and pommel. More aligned to the natural curve of the core. |
