    That was great Tresh! You're so creative.
    If y'all do another one, show how you did some of the steps (like getting the button hole the right size or how you did the wires.
    Does it actually turn on? I can't tell because the crystal looks like it's always glowing. Great choice on the Crystal. I'm so happy you have a hole for us to see it.

    I thought Tresh's lightsaber was VERY cool. Kink of reminded me of a planet junkion saber from some transformer crossed universe somewhere. I thought silver and unicorn horn when i first saw the raw materials but i was BLOWN AWAY as she constructed her OWN lightsaber, alone, by hand. What a woman! She's a keeper!

    • @BenLaurence
      @BenLaurence  4 года назад +1

      YES that’s what I love about it as well, it’s very beat up like it’s from a junk planet. Love that style! Yeah she really made this thing look cool, she’s definitely a keeper haha

    • @BenLaurence
      @BenLaurence  4 года назад

      We definitely will in the next building video. The step-by-step process would just make the video a little too long in this case. A lot of taking it apart and putting it together again to see what works. We do offer some extended footage over on Patreon.com/BenLaurence of your are interested
