Home Depot Lightsaber Prop Build

Here's another YouTube tutorial on how to build your own lightsaber using parts from a home improvement store.

Part List:
- 1 1/4” Plastic Pop-up sink drain assembly ~7$
- At least 36” of 1/2” PVC pipe ~3$
- 1/2” coupling (optional but gives a snug fit for the blade into the hilt) ~30cents
- Friction tape or hockey tape ~3$
- Electrical tape ~2$
- Epoxy ~5$
- #10-24 x 2” machine screw ~1$
- 1/4” flat washers x 2 ~1$ (
- #10-24 cap nut ~1$

Other configurations:
Fellow YouTuber: shonuff6666 had some great suggestions from his build: Instead of using the 1/4" metal washers, he used 3/8" black nylon washers. Instead of the #10-24 2" machine screw and cap nut, he used a 1/4" carriage bot and cap nut. Great engineering! Thanks for sharing!

Tools:
- Dremel rotary tool or power drill with a sanding drum and a 1/8” drill bit
- Sharpie or other marker
- Scissors
- Saw & mitre box

This lightsaber does not light up or produce sounds. It is a prop that can be used for play or for video/photos if you plan on adding a saber effect using photo/video editing software. This prop is similar to what Star Wars actors used when filming: http://goo.gl/OPKZ5J
