Title: Hi all Post by: Geod72 on June 07, 2018, 12:33:51 PM Hi there everyone. I'm a complete noob to sabers and the forum, although not to the Star Wars universe. I can still remember queuing up around the block to see A New Hope when it first released over here in Scotland back in 1970-something. I've just hit the guys up for a lucky dip so will keep you all posted when it arrives.

The light side has X-Wings, and they simply don't get any cooler than that ;) Title: Re: Hi all Post by: Geod72 on June 07, 2018, 10:00:31 PM Welcome! The light side has X-Wings, and they simply don't get any cooler than that ;) Can't beat a good old tie fighter. That said the b-wing is very under rated. Can you tell I like quirky :) Title: Re: Hi all Post by: Malik Thanewulf on June 07, 2018, 10:32:35 PM Hello and welcome to the forum. As a Grey Jedi, i believe in finding balance in all things.

Always happy to find another european on the forum (though Switzerland is still rather far from Scotland) Being more of a Grey balanced guy leaning towards the Dark for style and having the Light for purpose, I tend to not really take sides and give people the points they ask for/deserve...so here is a Dark point for you sir! ;D Title: Re: Hi all Post by: Geod72 on June 08, 2018, 08:36:07 AM Hello and welcome Geod72!

Title: Re: Hi all Post by: Geod72 on June 13, 2018, 09:07:24 AM Welcome to the forum. Look forward to seein your artillery. It's due for delivery today. Great service, picked up on Monday in Tx and delivered here in Scotland two days later. Can't fault service like that:-) Title: Re: Hi all Post by: Geod72 on June 13, 2018, 05:18:52 PM [img]http://i68.tinypic.com/2i8x851.jpg/[img]
I'm hoping I've added the pic of the new 'toy'. If my link hasn't worked I got the Sentinel with silver AV and cut outs. The blade is green and really shines. I'm gonna look to mod the hilt slightly by wrapping a portion of it with 'antique' leather to break up the silver somewhat. Title: Re: Hi all Post by: Malik Thanewulf on June 14, 2018, 12:12:15 AM Hello and welcome to the forum. Looking forward to seeing the modified version of your saber.
Title: Re: Hi all Post by: Geod72 on June 15, 2018, 03:25:45 PM The leather arrived today, it is 5mm antique brown simply wrapped around the hilt and pulled through and cinched on itself. Basic but I think it helps just make the hilt look a little bit different.

Title: Re: Hi all Post by: Geod72 on June 20, 2018, 03:24:28 PM Nice! The leather wrap flows well with the hilt Thanks.
