I had a neighbor who was (is) a very talented woodworker, and I talked him into helping me turn this Luke Skywalker lightsaber on his lathe out of pine! Lots of sanding and bondo work. I don't remember how we did the gear-shaped pommel, but I know it's all one piece. It says 2010, but I think that's the year I finished painting it. I believe it was started at least a couple years earlier.
Actually, it's not the only lightsaber I made. I also made a stunt version of this one out of PVC, so I could film a lightsaber fight (maybe one day you'll get to see one of those, eh?). And a bunch of others...
