During the Covid-19 lockdown of 2020, I challenged some of my prop building colleagues to “Star Wars” a Beer Fridge. Here’s my entry! The story of this prop is… A Coaxium containment unit which I am using as a beverage cooler in my shop. I got it at a Rebel Military Surplus sale. I think […]
For over a year I have been slowly working on sketches that would one day become my vision for Jaina Solo’s lightsaber. When the Crystal Focus version Six was announced I knew it was time. Finally I could build a saber which would allow me to fine tune the colour blend for the blade, and […]
For years Star Wars fans have talked about, or even attempted to build a working Holocron. Sadly there has never been a functioning Holocron available to buy anywhere… until now. Almost 2 years of work has finally yielded the Genesis Custom Sabers Data Holocron. This is a CNC machined work of art. The anodized aluminum […]

For those who are unfamiliar with the character; Corran Horn is a Corellian Jedi, one of Luke Skywalker’s first students after the fall of the Emperor. He helped Luke to start the Jedi Academy on Yavin, but left […]
This project was an experiment in blending MHS parts with ones that I had machined from scratch. it worked brilliantly. CF 4.0 Blue Rebel LED 4.8v NiMH battery pack
This was my first real crack at building a Crystal Focus Lightsaber. It took me forever to engineer a way for everyhing to fit. CF 2.5 Green K2 LED 4.8 NiMH Battery Pack hidden aux button (under one of the black openings in saber belly)

For those who have read his novels, you will know that Darth Bane was given a special curved or “hooked” lightsaber by his Master on Korriban. This lightsaber fit Bane’s physically […]
This is the evolution of my own lightsaber. I have rebuilt it twice to accomodate emerging technologies. It’s been kind of a loboratory for me to experiment with new techniques before trying them on a custom saber for someone else. Presently it has a rebel LED and a Crystal Focus 4.3 sound card.
