Happy May the 4th!!! During quarantine, I took on the fun challenge of building a customized lightsaber with the CFX sound card, a neopixel blade, and a bluetooth module. I learned a lot about how to build it from people in the sabersmithing community who had a passion for sharing their knowledge. I felt it was best that I give back what was given and share how I built my custom lightsaber. • ====Links==== • Rob Petkau = / @madcowgenesis • The Custom Saber Shop = https://www.thecustomsabershop.com/ • Genesis Custom Sabers = https://genesiscustomsabers.com/ • Arms of Ilum on Etsy = https://www.etsy.com/shop/ArmsOfIlum • 3d Chassis = https://www.etsy.com/listing/73144630... • Official CFX Group on Facebook = / 735661673524311 • Nick Kurszewski = / @nickkurszewski9869 • Plecter Labs = https://www.plecterlabs.com/ • Erv Plecter = https://www.facebook.com/search/top?q... • Saberfont = https://www.saberfont.com/ • ====Videos==== • A playlist of Lightsaber Building Videos: • Lightsaber Construction Videos • ====My CFX WiringGuide Parts List==== • https://drive.google.com/drive/folder... • Included in this google drive folder is a google doc with a list of parts. • ====Timecodes==== • 00:00 Intro • 00:12 Prepping the Parts • 01:37 Drilling Retention Screws and Switch Holes • 03:00 Chassis Preparation • 03:56 Prepping the Recharge Port • 05:20 Wiring the Switches • 06:45 WIRING DIAGRAM • 07:03 Wiring the CFX • 08:32 Installing the Speaker • 09:28 Assembling the Chassis • 10:30 Wiring the Hilt Side PCB • 10:55 Wiring the Bluetooth Module • 11:32 More Chassis Assembly and Soldering • 12:23 Testing • 12:37 Making the Pixel Blade • 16:52 Testing the Pixel Blade • 16:58 Creating a Crystal Chamber • 18:39 Creating Custom Shrouds • 20:10 Covertec Clips and Recharge Port Access Hole • 20:59 Final Results • 21:39 Conclusion
