Does anyone know how to make a functioning blade for a custom lightsaber? One like a force fx or something that light will run along. Thanks

I don't know, but I have pictures of Force FX lightsabers.

That was Mace Windu's. This is Luke's.

It's impossible. At least now it is, and if you tried, well, try to create raw energy. Hint: It's impossible, it violates the laws of thermodynamics.

yes but 3 crystals...a lens, powersupply and casing make a light sabre... has KOTOR taugh you nothing???

Yes: Don't **** with the Jedi.

I swear, there are new threads on this very same topic all the time... Hmmmm, somehow I think I won't positively contribute to this thread because it just annoys me. See ya!

Didn't that Landon8 guy have a topic similar to this, and we Booed him out of here with logic?

to answer your question , You can do a the old torch setup but it looks like sh*t!
You need a light source that will illuminate evenly throughout the blade and for that most people use plasma, neon or fluro tubes that are normally encased in a strong polycarbonate sheath for strength although on almost all type "duelling' is not recommended.

Here is a pic of my green neon blade, it runs off two 12volt rechagable batteries and burns hell-bright!
