Does anyone use FreeCAD for chassis design?

Yeah. FreeCAD uses *.FCStd files.

Do you want the file?

maybe, if you don’t mind. if ya planning on selling them then I’ll pass.

No it’s a one off design for these specific hilts.

now to figure out if it would fit my sabers. they are 1" ID.

Not likely. This is 27.5 at the bottom, and 25 at the top.

Both the button and chassis seem to be ready for install!

Project is finished and the first hilt is installed! Now to scrounge around and find parts for the second one…

Detail of the accent pixel. Used a clear glass cabochon that I tried to frost up with sand paper. Not happy with the diffusion.

Actuator button has an aurebesh ‘L’ on it for my daughter’s initial.

Chassis is fully removable. Sound is decent, but couldn’t get the speaker enclosed.
