Three of my students ordered Sentinel v5 sabers. And unfortunately the edges on the emiterwindows are to sharp for two of them. One actually cut her hand open, so that took the fun out of spinning.
So I'm searching for a sollution now, and sanding seems the best way to go.

Does anyone have any experience in sanding the windows.
The forum is full of threats with people who say you can sand the edges, but no little tutorial or pictures.

I'm not unfamiliar with using a sanding tool, but they might be.

Does anybody have any pictures of the process? Or the endresults?
Does the sanding affect the black of silver hiltcolor?
How carefull should you be? Or is the hilt a little forgiving?

I don't have any videos or pics, but the sanding can be done with a Dremel on low, or even with sandpaper, especially for knocking off the edges.
It may not show at all on a silver hilt. On a black hilt, though, it will likely show some silvering

Luckily the person who cut her hands open, has a silver one. So I will pass it on. Thank you.
