    this guy should try a Kylo Ren saber. since the saber design he has looks unstable, it would be perfect for a Kylo Ren saber.

      Red is hard :( I've got a few months before the next Star Wars comes out to figure it out though!

    • @mp-fp4bl
      @mp-fp4bl 7 років тому +58

      Sufficiently Advanced yeah. I imagine red would be hard. You could alternatively do a Jedi version of Kylo ren's as a prototype though.

      Allen pan's work can compare to a flame thrower. Unlike the hacksmitch's work... Their light saber has insane temperature degree which really melts a metal. Inlike allen pan's work.

    You are missing two things that would make this a real lightsaber, but you are closer than anybody in history (you really should be proud, as this is the first major step towards a real one). What you're missing is power and stability. If you were to try and marry your plasma blade with a LIPC (laser induced plasma channel, which involves running multiple burning laser beams in close parallel, and bouncing electricity between them by having the beams intersect with high voltage discharge from something like the electrodes of a stun gun), or maybe even just rig a stun gun circuit so that your plasma stream intersects with the stun guns electrodes, the plasma should carry the electricity (or light and electricity, if you opted for LIPC instead of just electrodes). This could make your blade ALOT more powerful, and would see you at about 80% of what a lightsaber should be (let's say you're currently at 15% or so, which is still very impressive, as our best minds have said it was impossible for years). To get the final 20%, you need stability in the blade, which could be managed, honed and adjustable by passing the beam through the center of multiple adjustable highly magnetic rings. Fluctuating the magnetic field should contain and adjust the beam, and that's about all there is to it. Essentially, you need to integrate a taser circuit, a few blue ray diodes and a couple magnets into your design.
