Blade Assembly

1. Lay out the parts to get an idea of how they go together. This will keep you from accidentally putting it together wrong. I recommend using a good super glue or epoxy for the plastic parts and hot glue for the wires.
2. Build the blades first. Starting with the pieces shown glue the connecting surfaces and apply a liberal amount of glue in the peg holes. There is a channel that runs the length of the blade where the LEDs will go, try to avoid filling that hole with glue.
3. Insert the pegs and screw together with 2 of the longer 1″ screws.
4. Glue connecting surfaces on the 2 parts shown with a liberal amount of glue.
5. Insert the peg and screw together with 2 of the longer 1″ screws.
6. Glue connecting surfaces on the 2 parts shown with a liberal amount of glue.
7. Insert the peg and screw together with 2 of the shorter 1/2″ screws.
8. Repeat steps 2-8 on the other half.

LEDs and Handle

This sword is powered by an external battery pack that you can put in your pocket and plug into the sword. Here are the items you will need:

1. You should have these parts, or something similar.
2. Test your setup.
3. IMPORTANT – You will have one roll of LEDs per side. insert an LED strip in one side all the way in and mark where it meets up on the handle side. Then measure the length from the end to the mark. Then measure from the USB side out that length and cut it on a line nearest to the measurement. I cut mine a at 31″(31″ not including the usb cable) so the usb cable went into the hole a bit.
4. I trimmed mine a little shorter so the usb cable went into the hole a bit. Insert the LEDs into the blades with the lights facing out. If you want to keep the led from sliding out put a dab of hot glue in the hole.
5. Test again, make sure the LEDs are facing out.
6. Put blades together as shown.
7. Pop in the clear inserts round side first with your fingers or tap them with a screwdriver or hammer.
8. Glue the connecting surfaces (tops and sides) of the blade and slide them into the handle as shown. Line up the holes in the blade with the holes in the handle. Once they are lined up screw in 2 1″ screws, then flip it and screw in the other 2.
9. Glue the usb from the splitter cable onto the base plate, plug in the extension cable on the other side to make sure its in the right position and let it dry in that position. Once it dries you might want to reinforce it with more hot glue.
10. Carefully tuck in the wires leaving a gap in the middle for the usb connected to the plate.
11. Secure the bottom plate with 4 1/2″ screws. You can also apply glue to the base plate if you don’t anticipate opening it back up.
All done!!!!
