I don't get that. But i remember you mentioning it during the Kiyo-not-ever-gonna-be-complete-collab when I said the hog was like a laser hog.

Yes, but the reality factor is, a crystal just doesn't emit light. Sorry. If there was some sort of current or energy applied to it, then yes, I can see how it could. The other factor is, even though it is emitting light and heat, you'd still need an agent for the it either reflect, or absorb it. :/

I think it's made of magics!

I believe that the handle is what emits the light and heat the crystal keeps it together.

Maybe instead of arguing about how it works, let not get too greedy. I think we just be grateful that we can slice peoples shit up with something the size of a dildo.

The. Force.


The Jedi Use "the force" to keep their light saber on and emitting the "saber" That's why the jedi can turn on the light saber from far away.

Does it ignite it? Or just take particles around the area and solidify them, then destroy them once you press the button again?

I belive you are correct. as it is said in one of the books or somewhere in the expanded universe anyone can wield a lightsaber but will have extreme difficulty because it has no weight other than the handle. The force has nothing to do with the lightsaber itself but is needed to control the weapon skilfully.
