How to make a Lightsaber - Anakin's, Luke's, and Finn's

In this apprenticeship I teach you how to make the lightsaber that has traversed the entire Star Wars Saga from Episode II Clone Wars belonging to Anakin Skywalker all the way through the original Trilogy being passed on to Luke Skywalker by Obi-Wan Kenobi and finally to Star Wars Episode VII The Force Awakens where it appears to be given to Finn. This build is made of easy to obtain plastics like PVC and can probably be built in only 8 hours (not including painting time) and will cost about $20 in materials. It is safe at most ComicCons. So no matter whether your next cosplay will be Anakin, Luke, or Finn you are set to be looking sharp sporting this lovely hilt. You don't need a lathe or other large woodshop or metal working tools to build and it is stronger and more water resistant than a paper and other materials.

Here is the link to the flashlight I used in the video

Here is an alternative flashlight that you can use and comes in different light colors (Red, Green, blue, purple, etc)

You will need to slightly dismantle it to get it to fit in the hilt so here is a video that helps with that

If you make this build, comment and please send me pictures, I would love to see them and hear about it!
