No, sadly I'm not turning it into a lightsaber.

Although, I probably COULD make one of slightly larger diameter to house a blade.

Yea, I seriously wanted to have something like that. But all the places that made custom sabers were way too expensive

As a minor update, I swapped out the crystal and copper inner support out in favour of some 3/4" polycarbonate. This dims the light through the crystal chamber and increases the light through the emitter stone. The look of the body remains the same, but it now has a brighter light because of the polycarb.

And here are the updated pictures in celebration of Christmas and also in honour of the New Regeneration's arrival. Note, most weathering was removed as an experiment to see which way I preferred to have it. Also note that the first pic is meant to show you the just how far away the sonic was from the TARDIS sign when I took those particular pictures (probably a foot or more).

Looks pretty nice dude. I like it. Posted to Facebook so my brother could check out your build. He's a big Dr. Who nut. Lol. He might even want to do a build after seeing how easy this was. Did you use a 5mm LED or full P4/Rebel? We would probably use some 5mm LEDs so we don't have to do much wiring. We'd probably also do the switch type. Might even get one from FYE just to use the sound card in the build.

Someone asked me to do a custom gold sonic build for them and these are the progress pics I sent tonight. I'm making this one a bit more compact than my first attempt.

Very nice!!! Most of the ones I've seen don't compare to yours! Have you thought of putting an LED in it/them?

Thank you very much! I do enjoy building these Smiley I do have those little LED flashlights in there...they make for easy switches, bright (but not blinding) light, and easy change for batteries. Like my original one, this will have a green light. I've got someone else interested in commissioning me to make one in the same style if I can only find a good, purple marble that I don't have to pay all of outdoors for!

Alrighty, I finished up the work on this particular build and have sent the pics off to the new owner. It's been a fun build and I was able to make this one a bit more compact than my original. There are some pics of the two side by side for comparison (note, I changed mine up to a more natural weathering).

Thanks a lot! The new owner backed out on me, sadly, but I can always use an extra sonic Wink
