Title: Manticore staff grips and updated my Lightsaber Case Post by: Ealotech on August 17, 2013, 11:36:52 PM Hello Saberforum!
Its been awhile I posted something, So here is what I'm up too. My Manticores are here! Woot woot! Lightstaff! The specs on them are: Blade: Gaurdian Blue FoC: Red A/V Switch: Blue With Sound Ultra mid grade blade. All I can say is super awesome job US A+ on craftsmanship on the sabers! What I customized on my Manticores was putting grips on the hilts. I search online for hilt grips options for this job and I found the grips I think would fit to the Manticore staff. So I went with the Para cord grips. And this is the result from applying the grips. =) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v252/zeomoshimoshi/Ultrasabers/US_BB0017_zps127b6a8a.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v252/zeomoshimoshi/Ultrasabers/US_BB0018_zps894464c3.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v252/zeomoshimoshi/Ultrasabers/US_BB0019_zps64be2f3b.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v252/zeomoshimoshi/Ultrasabers/US_BB0012_zps31545234.jpg) Here is my updated Case with stickers and airline tags =) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v252/zeomoshimoshi/Ultrasabers/US_BB0020_zps7399b36d.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v252/zeomoshimoshi/Ultrasabers/US_BB0022_zpsf20ca1cd.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v252/zeomoshimoshi/Ultrasabers/US_BB0021_zps8307eb90.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v252/zeomoshimoshi/Ultrasabers/US_BB0023_zps7b2431a8.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v252/zeomoshimoshi/Ultrasabers/US_BB0024_zpsd070e03e.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v252/zeomoshimoshi/Ultrasabers/US_BB0025_zpsd69cb5f0.jpg) Also my First place, 2ed Summer raffle was The Gaurdian =) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v252/zeomoshimoshi/Ultrasabers/US_BB0016_zpsb58368cb.jpg) Title: Re: Manticore staff grips and updated my Lightsaber Case Post by: James Casey on August 18, 2013, 12:48:22 PM Damn...
Cool stuff, ealotech. I love the case. Must be nice to just have somewhere to stash your stuff, although I'm guessing you mostly have them out on display?

Title: Re: Manticore staff grips and updated my Lightsaber Case Post by: Ealotech on August 18, 2013, 02:53:37 PM I would love to display my sabers but I have limited space :-[ but maybe in the future when I get a bigger place I will get something to display the sabers =)
Thank you James Casey & eerockk =) Title: Re: Manticore staff grips and updated my Lightsaber Case Post by: Darth_Phobius47 on August 18, 2013, 10:42:27 PM Very cool case and collection! Your staff actually lines up? Very nice. So now you have technically 2 staffs and a single saber, lol, great score on a free 2nd Guardian. Still UltraSaber's best work aside from the Scorpion, the Guardian is. (some accidental Yoda speak there! ;D)

The idea came from a weapons case as a base idea. I searched and found this Aluminum Tool Case from Mastecraft in Canadian Tire (Store) and it was a great choice. It came with all the things you need in a weapons case, pick foam, tool rack, foam dividers and a handy shoulder strap. I wanted to personalize the case with stickers/logos Star Wars theme. So I choose the Jedi Order made the stencils logo. Also made my user name in a stencil and spray painted over the Mastercraft brand logo over. I made my own airline tags and printed them out and made the stickers. In the future I will get another case and personalize it with a Sith like theme to accommodate my future Ultrasabers. =) Title: Re: Manticore staff grips and updated my Lightsaber Case Post by: Molina00 on August 20, 2013, 02:20:05 PM That is awesome! I love the case almost as I much as the Manticore staff, that is tops on my wishlist.
