    Now you only need:

    - A solid retractable core that withstands the temperatures, so the blades can actually clash with each other (and not just pass through).

      I thought about it and that's a great idea. They don't need the core to be as thick as the saber since it's not for appearances, the flame/plasma around it will do that. It needs to be completely heat resistant (apparently tungsten is the best for that, though I don't know if that's an option) and tough enough to clash with things.

    they actually are getting pretty close, there’s still the issue of magnetic stabilization and finding a fuel source that can fit inside the hilt. But the first problem simply takes time, and the second takes money. As long as people keep supporting the channel, they will get there.

      @EffinChat 2 года назад +1

      My guess is that they're looking into disrupting surrounding airflow with their own built-in fans on the hilt somehow? Like, forming a vortex of air around the blade so that it isn't as affected by crossbreezes.
      Might also have the unintentional benefit of making it look like Kylo Ren's "unstable" saber too

    • @KitZunekaze
      @KitZunekaze 2 года назад +17

      Unobtainium is the crux of a lightsaber working. But it was dreamt up by using the idea of LASERs. Which is that when you apply a strong electrical current to certain gemstones, they emit radiation (light.) Star wars suggested "What if there was a crystal that produced plasma when stimulated, instead of light?"
      So until there is a gemstone that emits plasma when stimulated by electricity (Physically impossible, because plasma is a state-change of matter.) The rest of 'how a lightsaber works' is basically the same principal of what they're doing here. The other key ingredient being a magnetic force-field... which is probably also physically impossible. But the force field is used to create a barrier to 'contain' the plasma inside of. That gives the saber it's shape.
      But that's where your suggestion might be worth looking at. The next step for this project might be ways to 'contain' the blade in the right shape. Force fields obviously aren't possible, but maybe other ways to contain or shape the plasma-stream?

    In Star Wars Legends Lore, way before the Skywalker Saga (like 10.000 years before Galactic Empire) the very first lightsabers actually looked like this and worked like Hacksmiths version. Jedi Knights had a PowerCell attached to their belts. The lightsaber was then connected with a powercable to the powercell on the Belt. Later the kyber crystal which gives power to the lightsaber was redsigned and added to the hilt itself. Thats the lightsaber we know from the movies.

    Wow this is actually kinda like how old generation lightsabers were, they had an energy pack on their hip to power up the lightsaber and ignite it, though yes indeed the light saber was like a solid rod made out of plasma, and this is just a very hot flame, this is the closest anybody has come to make an actual working lightsaber, this is so damn impressive props to y’all hacksmith

    Now all you have to do is to make your power source super small and super long lasting.
    Now I have a theoretical solution but it's super expensive, super time consuming and very difficult to do.
    Three steps guide, very easy:
    1. Make a fusion reactor.
    2. Make it smaller.
    3. Put it in a lightsaber.
    Bonus step: make an actual arc reactor and dig a hole in your chest.
