It’s as if lightsabers were real we got to see exactly how they are constructed. After he was done if one didn’t know better you would expect a real blade to come out of it when activated lol! The work detail, the love and the quality is apex and I appreciate it all being shared.
I am truly amazed. This is the best lightsaber build I have ever seen, hands down. You are truly the one to top, this is better than I ever could have imagined. This is simply as good as it gets.
@@GOTH3Designs My dude, I just dropped 3k on all the parts. I didnt notice NONE of the electronic parts are listed in the parts list. I cannot find the electronics and there is no list at all. The plecter labs has been out forever. How am I supposed to do this? Can you please tell me where i can find the rotating motor, the sound board and the crystal focus????
@@Asherons The stuff from GOTH is to put all those things in. You start with the board/electronics...etc. I highly recommend joining one of the many custom lightsaber groups on fb and start researching. You've got some work to do. Sadly, sound boards are a bit difficult to come by right now (proffie, CFX, Verso...all in high demand with short supply).
@@MBrulla I found a CFX thankfully, I got the Screen, speaker. Only thing I need now are the LED's. I'm js, this is a tutorial video for something that costs thousands of dollars. Just wish the list was a little refined, or the turorials rather. GOTH have a discord? Thanks for the reply btw.
Holy $h!t!!! This work is a level way above all else. Not in a million years would I attempt something this intricate. Especially with my current eyesight. Hat's of to you GOTH-3Designs.
its a beutiful chassis, you know, i also like a lot the rudy pandy style for the easy quick reveal of the cristal cahmber, i wish goth 3d have a chassis for this saber that can do something, perhaps not exactly the same but similar to the rusy pando, that would be sweet
the work you have done is exceptional bravos it is a masterpiece I have for project to build a complete lightsaber in 3D resin I am currently looking for a good 3D file for the chassis and watch your video motivate me
Awsome what is it that you’re using to prep the metal 3D printed parts? That blue bottle I usually seen in your other videos. I know this is kind of old but putting together a Revanted hilt right now. And plan on doing a master chassis for a Anakin ROTS hilt or an Obi ROTS.
imagin if a wire goes or something it would literally need stripped to bits to repair it, all those glued parts too would be a nightmare, looks nice tho,
It neither needs complete stripping to fix wiring, nor to unglue parts. Most of the parts that would need to be dismounted use screws specifically to also to be dismounted. Then generally, it is important to have a good install, tested at each step, and use good materials (good PTFE wires, ... etc), whatever the saber or chassis.
Thank you! Sorry for the late reply! We currently can't take any commission as being focused on designing and prototyping. However there are several good saber installers that can build this for you (ex: Scarecrow's Lightworks, LLC on FB or Sabersforever on IG, )
@@GOTH3Designs Yeah.. I have all the parts and realized too late that this was too difficult. Now I have 3k worth of parts still in velvet baggies. You wanna buy em? Polised brass, some parts silver. etc.
How much do just the components for the Grand Master chassis cost (hilt excluded)? I was trying to look up on the website but could only find ind. part prices?
You can buy the 3D printed components via Shapeways, the electronics from a place like Saber Armory, and the rest is fairly common hardware. This is meant for people who already build Lightsabers as either a hobby, or a profession, and is designed to push the capabilities of the CFX soundboard. There are people who can build a kit like this for you, for a price.
What really amazes me about this build is the amount of parts that all have to fit so perfectly with each other and the amount of time and prototyping this must have taken to get right. I'm currently working on my first custom fully-removable chassis and crystal chamber (modeling in Solidworks and 3D printing) and it's an incredibly complex balancing act between having the space to fit all the parts, cables, LEDs, etc., being able to wire it inside, being able to actually print it, and having it look awesome. I'm having a hard time with material precision tolerances (difference between model and print) with just one material on my prototypes, it boggles my mind how you managed to do it for a bunch of different materials! What's your process for designing and building all these custom chassis?
Just wanted to make it known, all my top favorite grafflex chassis I’ve ever seen have all been (coincidentally) Goth3d creations. I just like looking at various custom builds and projects and the ones that really made me take notice happened to so far always ended up being Goth3d amazingly! I have yet to find one from a different designer/saber smith that hasn’t ended up being revealed as a Goth3d. I will, however, mention that Ethan Zimmer has been responsible for building 3 of those top 5 favorite projects of all time and he’s done some very small, but ingenious modifications to his Goth3d designs projects that I consider overall superior to the original designs that I feel would be beneficial to either implement or offer as “options” either in the files or parts offered for sale. These are obviously still completely Goth3d creations, but I wanted to at least make it a point to mention Ethan and his work. While he doesn’t really make complete designs from scratch, he’s my favorite saborsmith because he’s constantly making creative modifications to existing designs that completely set his builds apart from others. Get Ethan and 4 others to build the same Goth chassis, guaranteed Ethan’s will stand out in some noticeable way that will cause most to prefer it over the other 4 despite technically being the “same” hilt. . Most are improvements that either facilitate a maintenance task or enables a user to quickly modify something or otherwise corrects an aspect of the design that might unintentionally hinder serviceability or cause some difficulty with something. Mostly small things that presented annoyances or changes to an unnecessary aesthetic that was might be unnecessarily complicated or fragile and offered no real benefit or possibly even created extra steps with some tasks. If you aren’t familiar, I suggest singling out his videos featuring his Goth3d projects and note the unique mods he does.
@@kidwajagstang Oh, damn this is the wrong comment I posted on lol. It was about the hilt. It's good to see you guys arent dead. People are looking for parts and never gettign emails back.

I have to pre assemble the chassis first before anything. Then install electronics, then install more chassis and so on,
This is hands down the sickest, most insane thing I've ever seen. All the hats are off, good sir. Absolutely brilliant!
Thanks so much ☺️

Amazing craftsmanship holy cow
I think my mouth was open the whole video...might have drooled a little bit. So amazing!!
holy shit !!! that is truly amazing. i have built sabers and im an aerospace engineer but that build is way beyond my skills. kudos sir !!
Thanks a lot ^^
Just got myself a Roman Props ESB Graflex. I've been wanting to do an install of this caliber for years. I think it's time I take the plunge
That is beautiful and imaginative work, art. Well done.
Thanks so much :D

stunningly beautiful and what amazing craftsmanship. well done and ty for sharing!

wich glue and weathering dye did you use?
Sorry for the late reply:
We use E6000 equivalent glue
And for the weathering, mostly Brass Black and Tifoo Silvergel
I would love one of these things but unfortunately I can't afford it.
instead of having 2 diffrent crystals to show befroe and after vader
you can just have a mechanism to twist the crystal to change from blue to red
What are the size of those neodymium magnets
Sorry for the late answer, the DIY instructions have all the details.
there are various magnets sizes
Did you go base lite or neopixel, proffie board or xenopixel?
imagin if a wire goes or something it would literally need stripped to bits to repair it, all those glued parts too would be a nightmare, looks nice tho,
It neither needs complete stripping to fix wiring, nor to unglue parts. Most of the parts that would need to be dismounted use screws specifically to also to be dismounted.
Then generally, it is important to have a good install, tested at each step, and use good materials (good PTFE wires, ... etc), whatever the saber or chassis.
Is this a kit or something that I can buy to build myself?
Yes a full DIY kit is available here: goth-3designs.com/product/graflex-grand-master-complete-diy-kit-on-demand/
:)
You work is amazing!!! How can I commission you to build this?
Thank you!
Sorry for the late reply! We currently can't take any commission as being focused on designing and prototyping. However there are several good saber installers that can build this for you (ex: Scarecrow's Lightworks, LLC on FB or Sabersforever on IG, )
I just have to ask. Is it even possible to have the chassis design as the hilt itself?... please say yes..
I would be possible, but the emitter would need to be a bit longer to properly host and retain the blade ^^
@@GOTH3Designs how much would I be looking at?
I would pay thousands for this... if I had thousands.
Is this compatible with kesabers elite blade holder??
Yes, by using Part1 Style 3, it will work.
can this not just be purchased fully built?
I did the same thing with my helping hands so the alligator clips didn’t damage parts or wires😂
I wish these metal parts were affordable. Maybe someday….
I just got the mpp 2.5 and looking for a direct link to this chassis
Hot damn!
Dude, please tell me what that multi clamp devise name is so i can buy one. Thanks!
Helping hands I think
@@GOTH3Designs Yeah.. I have all the parts and realized too late that this was too difficult. Now I have 3k worth of parts still in velvet baggies. You wanna buy em? Polised brass, some parts silver. etc.
How do you control the speed of the spinning motor?
The soundboard does it ;)
For example, I've setup the rotation faster when the crackled crystal is inserted.
@@GOTH3Designs great. Thanks a lot for the reply.
Hi. How exactly do you program the board? Where in the configuration file? Thanks
What did you use for the painting? I can't read the label
Brass black and Tifoo silvergel
When you buy the pieces are they metal of plastic? And are they bronze?
They are cast metal (made by Shapeways from a 3D printed mold) and they are mostly brass :)
@@GOTH3Designs thank you :)
How much do just the components for the Grand Master chassis cost (hilt excluded)? I was trying to look up on the website but could only find ind. part prices?
I've seen 1600-1800$

This saber is not a Goth design.
I’ll also add that there’s a lot of shady stuff with zimmerlabs, plenty to read through on Facebook or Reddit/TRA
@@TYNTD I know the SABER isn’t Goth3D’s design, it’s the chassis... as the hilt is the iconic Graflex, I figured that clarification wasn’t necessary..
