I found this video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENA5FWr76Ws that walks through the whole process of building a Lightsaber. I was wondering if anyone could help me out by listing all the specific parts I'll need to find, but translated into plain American English so I don't miss anything?

Good grief, just a mountain of technical jargon everywhere...

A bit too geeky, maybe... but hey, isn't it just as hard for you to go out and buy a Lightsaber?

I’m going to skip watching the video, honestly. But if they start throwing around all those complex chemical terms and nonsense, just ask over at the science forums 🙂 though I have to wonder, isn't it just easier to buy it outright?

It’s certainly the easier route, but I can't help but wonder what I'd be sacrificing 31 miles ($67), especially when I have the opportunity to offer 9.3 miles ($20).

And besides, how can you possibly know what it’s worth when you don't even know what's actually in it? 😕

It's because you don't actually know how to build one, you don't speak English, and even if you did buy one, you'd just end up struggling to put it together anyway...😉

But honestly, this is all just so incredibly childish... I mean, seriously, talking about a Lightsaber... give me a break.🙄

I find that whole approach a little childish, though... I mean, talking about a Lightsaber... honestly, it's a bit much.🙄

Look, I definitely know how to build things and my English is just fine, it's just that I need specific part names; I'm not exactly going to walk into a Home Depot and ask for a "sink faucet handle."

then you might as well try starting this thread over in the natural sciences section, or maybe see if Duggy or Chemist can migrate it for you🤷, though I honestly doubt you'll find any decent translations for those technical terms here... not everyone keeps an eye on this subforum

So, what exactly would you do with him?
Just sit around peeling bananas?🤷
