I've made a few with my 4 year old daughter - nothing to match anything on here, just using blade offcuts and beads from a hobby shop.
Can anyone recommend a clear-drying glue, though? We've used super glue and it dries white, which makes the interior of the plugs look pretty untidy. I can try and clean it with nail polish remover, I guess.

Hot glue should be effective. Just takes a little practice and quick fingers. This should help...Watch "Glue Gun Tips and Tricks" on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5cLQR95eu4&feature=youtube_gdata_player |

Hey, so is that emitter(/hilt) called "Redemption"? Is it possible to get one - it looks amazing!
The saber is named Redemption. The Hilt is a US Shock with parts from the "Other Guys" and a lot of electrical work inside of the hilt thanks to a friend of mine that was a sabersmith. I would tell you the part, but I'd get in trouble for mentioning another company, so I'll PM you about it instead. |

Oh, excuse my ignorance  Nah, I was wondering whether it was from US so that I can add it to my upcoming "extra parts" order when I get my paycheck. But thanks for the info, and again, very nice looking saber! |

Here's my first custom blade plug. Just finished it last night. It was inspired by another custom plug I saw on the Internet somewhere, where the builder was making plugs that resembled jet engines. I don't remember who it was or where I saw it, but whoever hat was definitely inspired my design.    The plug is made up of the end of a pen for the cone, the disk is from the innards of a hard drive, and the head from a razor. The plug sits above the ring of the emitter and this is by design. A couple of months ago one of the standard plugs got stuck in the emitter and I had to drill it out to remove it. This fixes that issue. More pictures can be found here. |

Nice design. The overhang works perfect on that Graflex. Worth more than the one point I can give you.
