Incredibly Cool Lightsaber Build Features a Real Extending and Retracting Lightsaber Blade!
You’ve got to check out this amazing Lightsaber that was built by the creative team at HeroTech! These guys made it so that it has a real extending and retracting lightsaber blade!
This thing is super impressive and the video came with the following note: “I'm so glad I can finally share Project JEDI with everyone.”
They show the full process of the build in the video and then showcase the lightsaber in action. It was created using a flexible 12 V LED strip and a magician’s cane.
The cane is made of a flexible material that springs out when you release a pin and contracts down to a size so small it can fit in your hand. There are also some motorized parts to help it extend slowly instead of fast.
It’s really quite magical to see! I would love to see this up close and in person!
