Beautiful LOsy Gray there, SFD I like it!
Thanks bro. It's a work in progress. I've got the metal pieces that hold the fake colored buttons all cleaned up, they had hot glue on them. I also ordered a couple of the gold buttons from the Parts and Supplies section of the store. As far as I know, they should fit. If not, I'll figure something out.

You’re welcome, SFD. I really like it. May have to do something similar as a Dark Jedi Like Hilt one day. I like it and I look forward to seeing what you’ll do. I like the gold parts you’re going to add. Really stands out and black and gold hilts are my thing so kudos.

Cool look SFD. I would be tempted to sand or paint that middle section of the saber for contrast, but that's just me. Interested to see how it turns out

I've considered sanding it. No ideas are off the table just yet.

I have gold, green and blue AV switches handy. (maybe a red one too) I like the look of the gold. It will look like it belongs once I get those gold buttons I ordered. Who knows, I may even put a gold Covertec on it.

I have a bunch different colour switches too, just not gold ones...lol I'm more of a silver guy, I guess.

This is an idea I got, thanks to hazard502. It's not assembled, the switch is just laying in there. If I do assemble it into a working saber, I'm going to have to get another emitter and pommel for my Archon 2.1. Also, you can see how beautiful Ultrasabers' shroud work is, since the shroud on that was tight enough to where it won't wiggle, yet the anodizing isn't scratched. This is all kinds of yes. Although it hurts to see your Archon broken up like this as you know my feeling about that hilt
