Title: Screws Post by: Kit-Rohm on February 03, 2011, 02:31:16 AM 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.
Title: Re: Screws Post by: Kit-Rohm on February 03, 2011, 02:53:36 AM 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.

Hope that helps.

Ps. I am pretty good with electronics its late here and I am having a bit of a blond day:P |
