Description
Taking a cue from Count Dooku's lightsaber, I wanted to make at least one curve-hilt or "dueling" lightsaber hilt. This one was pretty simple, with not too much flair on it (though just finding stuff that would work was the tricky part). I used a metal curved handle from an old vacuum cleaner (already had the slots cut into the end which adds a nice touch), four O-rings, a sink plug for the simple endcap, and a neoprene hand grip from an extendable paint roller. I think the paint roller cost the most, though I did get TWO handgrips out of it. All total this guy was a bit more spendy, coming in at around 12 bucks total.
