The Mighty, Mighty GUM


« on: December 04, 2018, 01:36:06 AM »

Santa Jinn flew by my house today and dropped of a special package...



As you can see it has a specially wrapped emitter choke point, custom grip, o-ring emitter add, and war glave pommel.





It has a nice CG LED, that shines beautifully through the windowed emitter.





Very cool. On a side note, you can see the cool little “blade” pluggy thing that I received in the mail today from an eBay parts supplier. Also cool.

My very special thanks to Therion Jinn for gracing me with this incredible hilt. His generosity is extraordinary. I wanted to review this hilt as I recieved it, in its “original” Jinn condition. It’s important because I’m going to completely customize it, and many things about it will change. As it was gifted to me I will gift it to another. There was a plan in the works to make Obi-Wan Wakanda a saber with sound, his first. Now, I believe it will be this hilt I customize for him, and I will give the hilt intended for him to someone else. Thanks to everyone for checking this out, and ALL HAIL THERION JINN!!!!

So you're just going to tease us with words, Gumby?

Was just teasing you my friend  Grin  It's beautiful and I love the color and customization that Therion's done to the Apprentice

Nice to see that it made it to you, Gumby.
There are also o-rings under the wrap, if I recall correctly.

Looking forward to seeing it evolve under your skills

Nice, kudos to Santa Therion and soon to be Santa Gumby for continuing on the giving spirit!

What are your plans?  Unless it's a Gumby household secret?

Well, the actual hilt look is still up in the air. It’s NOT getting battle damage is all that’s solid right now. I may take a page out of Therion’s book and paint the choke point, and another accent color somewhere, possibly the emitter. But, as boring as this may be to some more seasoned sabersmiths, I’ve salvaged an old Hasbro board I got from a build-your-own lightsaber toy I made at Disney World some years ago when I was there with an Ex and her kids. It’s actually a cool board, and I’ve figured out a way to wire it, which may be know to many, I’m not sure. But, for my purposes, it’s very cool! That being said, NO MORE HINTS UNTILL HE BIG REVEAL!! Ha! BAM!!

Leave it alone! ... Kidding, certainly looks good how it came and it'll be fun to see it transform further.
