    Just seeing this now, crazy that they make a clear version of that staff! I imagine your blade is pretty wobbly without a stabilizer, but still very cool!

    • @ColeFailing
      @ColeFailing  2 месяца назад

      Thanks man! The one in this vid is wobbly for sure. I made another with Anakin’s hilt where the blade is set lower and passes through a narrower shutter at the top which worked out better. Huge respect for you pioneering the idea for this mechanism!

    Have you thought about using fiber optics in the blade to light up the saber? You may be able to coil/uncoil them while the blade pops up and down. Great work though, the finished product looks really cool and you've come up with some really amazing solutions!

    I have an old 2006 spring loaded Darth Vader Lightsaber that I've thought of upgrading. Yeah the blade pokes out a bit though but I think that it's the closest that I'm going to get. maybe some better electronics or something, I haven't gotten that far ahead.

      It can’t retract yet, but one of the things I want to try next is adding a motor that will recoil the fishing line and pull the blade back in. Best of luck on your design!

    if you were to make a saber with the Disney style tape measure system what type of plastic would you use for the blade to achieve the concave yet spooling affect

    • @ColeFailing
      @ColeFailing  Год назад +1

      I’m sure Disney has their plastic custom made specifically for that, so you’d need to find a real-world equivalent. The blade plastic I used came from extendable staff coils originally, so one option is to go directly to their manufacturers and see if you can order some of the raw, uncut plastic. I don’t have a specific line on anything, but it’s all a work in progress!

    • @NoraIconiq
