In
a galaxy not so far away... there was a pastor who had a crazy interest
in Star Wars. In particular, making lighsaber props. I know that
might sound strange, but he found many parallels in Star Wars to
Christianity. He always found the "lightsaber" fascinating.
To that end, he made a few of his own replicas over the years and
wanted to share them with you.
I
consider what I do to be no different than art for me. To me it
is a form of sculpting. My sabers aren't perfect, but are good representations
and can be used as stunt or prop sabers.
I
work with aluminum, copper and brass rods and tubes. I have also
made sabers out of a hard surface synthetic material made of a polyester
vinyl semi acrylic with aluminatrihydrate, that has a matted aluminum
greyish color, it contains an organic peroxide catalyst. It is NOT
like traditional resins that are used to make molds. As far as I
know, I am the only one that has used this material in this way
to make sabers. I do NOT make
molds of MR lightsabers!
Presently
I am only making sabers out of metal now and NOT
making out of hard surface material, but if you would like to try
your hand at making your own saber and want to order a hard surface
rod to turn on a lathe just let me know. You can see a picture of
it on the bottom of my parts page.
I also
sell many parts, or have links
to places that you can get parts from and even learn how to make
your own saber. If you have questions just write me Pastor

I have
started a NEW project and that is selling Indiana Jones and the
Last Crusade "Holy Grail Chalices" made by a professional
potter out of terracotta clay. They receive a primer coat of paint
and are weathered accordingly. To see these please click on this
