Hey this may sound really stupid but I just got a DIY hilt th prophecy and I also got a blade. So how do I attach the blade? is it the two screws up by the emitter? or something that should go into the small holes just under the emitter? I am a really newb at this so thanks for the help.

Ok I am pretty sure the screws that hold the blade in place are the ones on the emitter with the knobs but even when I tighten them the blade is pretty wobbly for a saber I would use in filming I mean. It just seems as if the stability is off a bit.

The two threaded holes furthest forward are the blade retention screw holes...the two holes in the narrower neck section just behind the emitter are just 'windows' to let the LED blade colour light shine through. Hope that helps.

No offense, but if you don't even know how to attach the blade, installing electronics might not be the best idea.

You're doing it wrong.  Take the retention bolt retainers (what you called knobs) off the retention bolts.  Then use an allen wrench and tighten the bolts so the blade is snug.  Then screw the retainers back onto the retention bolts.
