I have seen many people talking about making sabers out of LEDs or cold cathode tubes, but I was intrigued by the EL (electroluminescent) wire concept.
Having never made any type of lightsaber before, I figured that this would be a fun little experiment.
Heck, if I can make one, then anyone can make it.
Sure there are things that I will "tweak" later (such as sizing the connections better and figuring out a way to make the blade permanently straight), but I thought I would give you what I have so far. Maybe this will encourage others to tinker around and find their own "pointers".
MORE PICS TO COME
