Hello from the Gold Coast! - Ramse Moade - 13-03-2016
Hi everyone, new Jedi recruit Ramse Moade here from the lovely (but currently very wet!) Gold Coast.
Just signed up yesterday, currently awaiting my Jedi costume and accessories, but do have my lightsaber which arrived last week (from Ultrasabers), and as I had a couple of days off last week, decided to make my own Jedi belt, all from leather and Chicago screws - I will attach photos at the bottom of the post!
Looking at making a few changes to my lightsaber too, will do some weathering to the hilt, pommel, and emitter, will also do some Tsuka Ito wrapping to the hilt, and swap out the guarded switch for a black AV switch.
Look forward to talking with, and meeting you guys down the track, and May The Force Be With You!
As I couldn't post my belt pictures in the original post, here they are now!

Welcome.
Sounds like you know what you're doing.
That's awesome!

Welcome aboard. Nice start
Can't wait to see it come together

Here's the latest mod done to the sabre, finally got the Tsuka Ito wrap, not perfect, but looks fine for a first timer!
Oh, and I've just ordered one of these from Ultrasabers, the Overlord with Obsidian v4 soundcard. The only customising I'll be doing to this one is swapping the blade holder from the Overlord to one of the Custom Saber Shop's Style 17 MHSV1 Blade Holders, and using a red thumbscrew, same as my other saber

Welcome aboard, the mod on the saber looks great

Wow! I love what you did with that saber! Cant wait to watch your costume build
RE: Hello from the Gold Coast! - Ramse Moade - 19-05-2016
Thanks Moo!
There's been a few changes since I was last on this site!
With my first saber, I wasn't happy with the way the Tsuka Ito wrap ended up, so I just leather wrapped it instead. I have also bought myself both a Graflex and an Overlord Lightsaber from Ultrasabers, and customised them myself - you can see the development in these albums -

A very fine Saber, great work

Impressive indeed. Definitely slow clap worthy.
