Here’s what’s up for tonight...





The custom chassis is drying. Not going to permanently affix the speaker yet, as I had to bend the wires at a 90 to the frame and it didn’t feel good when I did. However, going to run all the wire, and test, and if it all still works it’s going to get mounted!!!

Looking pretty good, broheim. I was going to warn against having a speaker held on by tape, (made that mistake before) but then I read the rest of your post. Wink

I would never bubba!!! I beveled the edge of the chassis, so adding some adhesive will be easy. Got the leather for the wrap out of the dye bin and drying...

I only did the electrical tape speaker trick for a couple sabers from other companies that are smaller on the inside. One thing I love about Ultrasabers is the ability to use MHSV1 speaker holders. Smiley

Currently, I have one good chassis, but I’m saving that for an upcoming build with one of the other guys soundboards. Lex will probably never duel with this, but Incase she does, I’d like it to have a chance. He’ll, maybe, if it works well enough, I’ll source some material and start making than!!!🤪😜😛😝

Congrats there, gumby.  Incredible work and attention to detail there, I've been following your thread since day one and it's been a great ride.  Have a point for all of this work.

F-nA fellas!! Hopefully, this week sometime I can get going on the wrap. The leather has been drying for a couple of days. Currently, it appears a nice dark brown, and if the Gods are willing, it will stay that way. Perhaps by Odin’s day I can be finished with this project and move on to putting sound in the Aeon and paint on the Sentinel!

At least you have organization. It's all fun and games until you're rooting around through various cardboard boxes going; "I know I have that heat shrink tubing around here somewhere..."

This is probably the last construction update on this project everyone! The next post will be the final reveal, so thanks to everyone who’s stayed with me this far!!!!




The o rings are tacked in place- 1” canter to center. The leather has been dyed a deep chocolate, is fully dried, and cut to size. Possibly I’ll wrap it tonight, more likely I’ll wrap it tomorrow. Then, on to adding sound to my Aeon v4 and pommel swap with paint upgrade for the Dark Sentinel!!!!
