MAYHEM - Destruction of an Aeon v3

[Dauntless Seven]

To be fair, it sounds like that in whatever space you use it in.  I do my work in an apartment as well.  Put on something fun to watch, and try to remember not to work late at night LOL.

     


Perhaps I am overly sensitive that I don't annoy others too much.  Some tenants like to complain... while their dogs are barking and children screaming/playing while dropping objects that sound like bowling balls above my ceiling at all hours of the day and night.  I even call one child " Thumper " so that I have some distorted fond relationship with him. 
                                
But my long balcony gives me a view of the ocean and mountains so it's a great trade off.  lol


Today.    ... perhaps not the best bragging photo as the mountains are mostly hidden... but it's sunny and warmish.

D7 this is truely amazing.  I’ve been creeping on this project before I even joined the forum and I’m so impressed with the finished product. The attention to detail is incredible. Overall awesome job!

I’m a guitar tech by trade and have been scanning my bench all day for spare parts that I can use as aesthetic mods for when my saber finally gets here (looking like Thursday!). This is definitely an inspiriation, as well as many of the custom savers I’ve seen so far on here, to get cracking on something right away.

Again great job!

That view!

I get that.  But I think as long as you're not drilling too early, or too late, what do they really have to complain about.  I can also attest that while it can be heard through thinnish walls, it's not terrible even then, so walls between apartments shouldn't be too bad.  My roommate doesn't complain that she can't hear her tv or music over it, so yeah.

Thanks Illyiss.  Good to know.  That sound part is always on my mind which puts an unwanted pressure on me to focus and get the saber completed or leave it alone and give the tenants a break.  So far no one has said anything about the dremel sound but I don't want a notice under my door to come see the manager about an issue.  Because that would be the end to my customizations.

Thanks so much BI and welcome to this Forum community.  I'm sure that there are lots of items/parts on your bench that will be a great find for saber customs.  When I first started I was the reigning " 0 rings " queen lol.  It's taken me years to get to this stage of confidence.  Unfortunately many of our distinguished saber builders and customizers cannot show their impressive work... unless it is done on an Ultrasaber.  But make use of their experience and talents as they all love to share ideas and discuss sabers.  Ask questions and there is no too simple of a request for those that are dedicated to saber crafting.

Thank you Rapine! And on a side note, everyone feel free to throw whichever point you like! Wouldn’t want the scale to tip too far out of balance...

Happy to have finally seen this - great story of the process and the result is stunning.
I'm a huge fan of the acidic lime green color and have a few personal hilts with it.

Definitely a hilt to be proud of.

[Dauntless Seven]

Thanks so much Drahcir !  Your customizations and personal assistance gave me my very first inspirations and the bravery needed to even consider taking a power tool and paint to a saber.  You continue to inspire, amaze and challenge me to create something different each time... through watching the many avenues your artistic vision takes you.  

I will always be most grateful.

Wonderful work D7, I know I have seen this before and commented but I guess not on this particular thread, so again fantastic, truly inspired mod.

[Xamon]

Still lurking my way around but this one is too awesome.   
I can just see the scene: big space battle between sith and jedi some poor sucker blown into space and this saber drifting off in the debris, floating around for a millennia or two before clipping the atmosphere of some distant world and blazing through the sky where it is seen by a curious force sensitive child who goes out and finds it.
Yes yes alright I have an over-active imagination  but awesome things send sparks flitting through my brain.

[Dauntless Seven]

Thanks so much... DBTD, BT25, LR, Edon and Xamon.  

Xamon... That's a great start to a backstory for this saber !

Well all yours to do with as you wish, just if you sell a book based on it I want some royalties.
