Star Wars Lightsaber (Complex version)
Hey everyone,
I received and built my Original Prusa i3 a few weeks ago and I have been printing non-stop. I am blown away by the print quality I've been able to achieve with it. I am currently working on printing and building the Star Wars Lightsaber (Complex version) ( http://bit.ly/206fXGk ). Here's a preview of what I'm moving towards as the finished product:
Here's the parts I have so far:

Very nice! What layer resolution are your printing at?

Thanks! I am printing these pieces out with 0.15mm layer height (or 150 µm).
Here's a picture of pre-assembly:

That came out very nice.
RE:
Great! I love star wars series. The Star Wars universe’s Lightsabres have grown to be its most identifiable elements. Particularly in the past 20 years, there have been several different lightsaber designs, hues, and backstories shown in star wars series. The Jedi & the Sith have historically belonged to the good side and bad side of the Force respectively, both of which are opposition to one another. The Jedi normally wield a blue or green lightsaber, while the Sith are frequently identified by their terrifying red lightsabers. Those classifications have traditionally been mirrored in the colors of their lightsabers. Fans have long questioned why and how the Jedi have a variety of coloured lightsabers whereas the Sith always appear to have red ones.
RE: Star Wars Lightsaber (Complex version)
The red ones have kyber crystals that have been corrupted by hate and the dark side of the force. By preference, taken from Jedi’s they have killed if I remember right. The most recent Sith saber had a cracked kyber cable, which produced a unstable beam for the saber and had to have the excess energy vented through it’s cross pieces. There was a in universe reason he refused to fix it, but I can’t recall what it was.
