Here is my first attempt at an all aluminum turned Luke ROTJ V-2 saber. It has an actual Graflex clamp, copper circuit card, metal cone on the grip portion, a triangle ring and a green crystal in the emitter, of which the emitter screws off. The black portion is painted gloss black.
Here it is weathered

My Obi Wan sabers
These are solid aluminum parts I recently finished to assemble my first all metal turned Obi Wan ANH saber as a "as first built" saber".
This is my Obi Wan ANH put together before any painting. The Emitter screws off.
I decided to paint it flat black and brass color.
I modified my 2 aluminum Luke ROTJ and Obi Wan ANH sabers to be able to hold a threaded aluminum rod.
I am finished with my solid metal "weathered" Obi Wan ANH saber. It has machined transistors and even holds a threaded aluminum rod. I also added the 2 wire pieces that attach the Graflex clamp to the grip. The wind vane is brass.
My MR is on the right and my homemade one is on the left. I kept my emitter lighter in color. Also, the emitter on mine unscrews as well as the brass wind vane which is threaded on.
Here is a great tutorial for weathering aluminum and brass weathering

This was an older attempt on an Obi Wan TPM that has a cap on the emitter.
I got the idea for a removable cap from this site:
I make and sell the brass valve and stone on the Obi Wan TPM lightsaber. The blue stone is a precious stone called Lapis Lazuli which is only found in the middle east. It was thought to bring out the truth and give wisdom. It was also thought to have been on the High Priest Aaron's breastplate in the Old Testament.
