Martyn's KRSabers ESB Graflex - proffieboard neopixel lightsaber

Two in one day, been busy over here - commission wrapped for Martyn! This is the first of the KRSabers new graflex kits that I've had in hand, and whew it's a looker. Once all the trinkets and accessories are attached the accuracy is amazing, and the hilt itself is cheaper than any other accurate graflex on the market that I've seen so far.

Martyn already has a few sabers, and he reached out as he was looking for a proper replica one - and had his eye on the graflex, being THE original saber. We discussed some options, and right as we were talking Khal over at KRSabers released the graflex kit - so that seemed to be an obvious choice. The install was straightforward, this hilt would be perfect for a beginner, but in this case Martyn was happy for me to go ahead and do the install. Filled this one with a few graflex themed fonts to "tell the story" of the hilt - starting off with ESB, and progressing through TFA, TLJ and TROS - all with music tracks and bladestyles to match their movie looks. Martyn was an ideal customer, telling me to "just go with your head" and letting me loose with the configs and aesthetics of the hilt, so I just made my ideal flex and hopefully I've delivered.

Specs:
@goth_3designs ECO CC chassis, painted in matte black and chrome gold
Proffieboard 2.2
2x button PCBs
@shtokcustomworx ECO NPXL long pin connector & lens
Rotary connector set for removable chassis setup
@krsabers 31mm speaker
High AMP Kill Switch
2x nano neopixel accents
18650 brushed chrome wrapped battery

The graflex hilt will always have a special place in my heart, so being able to put together one of these new kits left me beaming. I have two different graflex hilts myself, and have put together ten or so at this point, and this is definitely the most straightforward to install and cleanly designed one I've had so far - for dirt cheap too. Hope this is the first of many.

And Martyn, I hope this makes a great first high-end saber in your collection!

MTFBWY!
