If it's a guarded switch (raised ring around a centre button), they're smaller (12mm).

Yeah.

Well, smaller is better than larger, I suppose.

Well, you can get 12mm AV switches.  The hole needs to be bored out slightly though...

Not impossible though. Smiley

Thanks Zren. Smiley

Yes. It needed something, IMO.  I'm pretty sure it was Corwyn who said that, as schmexy as the Dark Sentinel is, without a touch of help, it's just a black rod.  A very comfortable, well-balanced, beautifully machined black rod, but a black rod nonetheless. Tongue

I tried to go for a bit of symmetry there by adding the handle grooves too - two apart - heh... Tongue

That's right.  The Dark Sentinel I won as a third place prize in the first raffle that I entered. Smiley

I "gutted" it, and added V4 sound and FoC to it.  I kept the original GB colour, and enhanced it with an illuminated AV switch.

I "LE'd" it up just a touch.  Subtle but unique...

HEY! I did another install! We all know what that means...

...montage time - enjoy:

I'm really happy with the way this turned out.  Grin

LR, that's one awesome saber.  I really like how the body looks but the emitter windows are the proverbial cherry  Wink  BTW, which pommel is that?
