That's a great perspective Obi...I think that's always how I saw it, I just didn't think about it consciously or articulate it. Thank you for the insight!

Building a lightsaber can be meditative and can be quite enjoyable...my most recent build was for my nephew and cost maybe $30 at most....I used the led from an old headlamp and some other parts from radio shack, the hilt was from pvc and stainless steel tubing...you can use basically any material you want and wire it up however you want..for his it has a powered on led, lighted switch and the blade led, no sound yet as the soundboards do cost a bit...

There is passion, yet there is peace
Through passion I gain strength and knowledge
Through strength and knowledge I gain victory
Through victory I gain peace and harmony
Through peace and harmony my chains are broken
There is no death, there is the force and it shall free me
Through passion I gain strength and knowledge
Through strength and knowledge I gain victory
Through victory I gain peace and harmony
Through peace and harmony my chains are broken
There is no death, there is the force and it shall free me
