Longshot Scope Bayonet

06 September 2008 - 12:08 PM

Hi Everyone. This is my first post and my first non-standard Modification. Basically what i did is take a spare Longshot scope and turn it into a Lightsaber Bayonet.

I first cut the yellow ends off a Longshot scope

I then cut the bottom off a toy Lightsaber i had. This was from the build your own Lightsaber kits. I did this because I could screw open the bottom to add a Maglight later.

I then trimmed all the excess parts away from the inside of both and smoothed down the inside. I also used Amazing Goop to glue the lightsaber end to the Longshot scope.

In this step I combined a part of the lightsaber blade, the big yellow cap from the first step, and the scope as illustrated in the next picture. I removes the extra blue from inside the big scope and used the goop again toglue everything together.

I then unscrewed the cap from the bottom and fed the rest of the lightsaber into the bottom of the scope. I had to trim the 3 extending parts of the saber a bit to make it fit a bit but since the blades overlap when extended it didn't shorten the 3 parts in the end.
