Thank god for spray paint.

Semi-copycat, I really was just using it. :P

I need to find batteries for my camera so I can take pictures... got three lightsabers I'm working on in the basement right now.

One of them has a ridged grip like this one

but the grip is up near the top, not the bottom. And the bottom is just shiny chrome with a gold endcap.

I really need to get some air circulation down in the basement though... too many spraypaint(and spray-on rubber for the grips) fumes, too little air movement.

1. That is one NASTY looking sex toy.

The button-like things just scream "ouch".

3. That's about how long it looks.

Nice handle!

5. Actually the one in the picture is about a foot long.

As are two of the ones I'm working on now.

The other is about 10 inches, I think. A little small for someone with hands as big as mine, but easily weilded with one hand.

... and in context, that sounds TOTALLY wrong right now. :P

10. Heh. There's s'posed to be a + sign in the middle.

Its making fun of the fundie one that says "Marriage = <picture of man> + <picture of woman>".
In the small print underneath it says, "Just say no to same-silverware marriage." :P

7. I've made a few dozen since I started. Which was around '01 or '02, if I recall correctly.

Sold most of 'em on eBay. Stopped for a few years. Dabbled in it again. Stopped again. Just started back up again. :)

I've got galleries of my original ones that I sold regularly http://www.gothicleatherwork.com/cheapsabers/metal.html">here and my custom ones that I made after those are http://www.gothicleatherwork.com/cheapsabers/customgalleries.html">here.
