This is modeled after the Derelict Lightsaber from SW:TOR.
I normally try to make my parts print without support, but it just wasn't possible with this one. I had to use supports for the Emitter_head_bottom, and the Emitter_ring. Also, while the emitter, body, grip, and pummel connect with either their own threading or the couplers from my Lightsaber Creation Kit (included here as well), the switch, studs, buttons, ring all have to be glued into place. I also over twisted the emitter head to get the two parts to aline properly. Many parts may need some sanding to fit right.
The Blade (which I am including) is a W.I.P. The couplers for it don't work with their threads after printed (might work at 100 microns) so I had to sand them down and force them in, then attack the next section and fuse them together. The blade does screw in and out of the emitter so you can attach and remove it as you want. The one in my picture is 35 inches long, which means 5 middle parts, an end and a base. Each part is 5 inches long to make it easier to print and measure.
Parts are fully compatible with my Lightsaber Creation Kit. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1274707

Notes:
I had to use supports on two pieces and I use rafts when I use massive supports. Everything else printed fine with no support.
Add a coupler to each end of the Barrel piece and then screw the pummel to the grip, the grip to the barrel, and the barrel into the emitter. Plug the emitter ring into place and glue, same with the front and back buttons. Plug the switch into the socket hole on the switch box and glue to the emitter head. Plug the posts of the pummel studs into the pummel glueing them in place. I actually used Acetone for glue as I printed in ABS.
If you want to paint it, test fit connect everything then disassemble to paint. Also when screwing the parts together, they can sometimes be difficult to start the first time, but are easier after that.
How I Designed This
This was modeled completely in Fusion 360.
