I got an arbiter with a green LED in a trade, and then when someone else offered me a blue LED with quick disconnects, I had an idea. I realized that without the flanged piece on the emitter, the arbiter could make a pretty decent Kanan saber with a few simple modifications. Some sawing, some pvc, and some painting later, I had this. I had to alter the LED unit so it fit in the body and not the neck, which allowed me to create a two piece saber with a large flange/shrouded emitter piece and then the body, just like it is on Star Wars Rebels. Click the thumbnails for larger pics. The arbiter was perfect for this because it was a bit too large as a regular saber, but once you divide it with the flange piece, it becomes a really greeat saber and very accurate to the dimensions of Kanan's. With the LED moved back though, the socket dept was pretty deep so I ended up finding a 40 inch blade for it, which works great!

Point to you, this is utterly fantastic. The fact that it comes apart... man that's just too cool.

Wow, nicely done (as always). I will admit, Kanan's hilt is one of my favorite designs.

Thanks for all the support, guys! This was a fun build, and the next one will be even better. I'm going to try some paint colors to get the look of the saber closer to the one from Rebels, and also machine the pommel a bit more to add more of a rounded end.
And yeah I'll definitely avoid those fuel cells haha. After I get this one sold I'm going to try to take pics of the next build so maybe if someone else wants to make one they can.
