mpoh98 Posted March 20, 2013 My third entry into the 2013 MocAthalon Team Theocracy. Category: 23. Bookends Design a pair of wickedly cool bookends. Show them off holding up your library of Barbie Fairy Princess books, or whatever you read. Even the book is lego. :D So for my bookends, I built Mace Windu's Lightsaber burning through the books! Unfortunately, the handle is a little heavy, so I have to use trans-clear pieces to hold it up. :/ It is surprisingly very strong, so It can hold heavy books as well. Enjoy! http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/356497 Soli Deo Gloria! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

B34TBOXX5 Posted March 27, 2013 The fact that you added that burning/melting technique where the saber blade meets the book just rounded the whole thing out for me. Very very very very cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
