The specs I chose are below. This is a very cool hilt that comes apart in 4 pieces, so later I think I might try replacing the neck with a vented coupler like I've seen others do or put on an Overlord Emitter. Very versatile, so cool to have this Luke ROTJ style saber.
You will be impressed with the Archon for sure, but it's coming with good company so there'll be a lot to be impressed by lol. Congrats! |

Thanks, hazard502. I watched a lot of video reviews, and there's more to this saber than meets the eye and 20% off! Maybe I'll paint the upper section of the neck gold, because that's one aspect of the Archon 3.1 that I really liked. I wonder if anyone in the forum has any suggestions to do something like that. |

You could always just get the 3.1 emitter, and swap them out... |

There have been 2-3 perfectly painted V2.1 upper necks painted gold and they looked amazing. There were a variety of spray paint brands used and one I remember was automotive with a clear coat layered on last. Those posts on the forums are older and would take a little digging to find. |

That's awesome, Sensei. My martial arts teacher did something similar for us many years ago (not lightsabers, but bo staffs, I was 18 at the time), and it was such an amazing gift because they were octagonal shaped out of this really hard Brazilian wood. Anyway, it's something I've held on to over the years to remember him and our class of students. Nice work, sir. |

I like the idea of clear coat on it. I wouldn't want something too glossy. Thanks for the info. +1 |

Thanks, LR. I thought about that, and I know you can do the reverse and buy an Archon 2.1 Emitter to put on an Archon 3.1 pommel, but I don't see the Archon 3.1 Emitter in the store. Do you suppose they'd sell me one if asked? Perhaps down the road I could do this. It'd make a good display. |
