Rivets
I just wanted take minute to talk about the rivets I used in this project. They were leather rivets that I got from Tandy Leather. They were part of an assortment of 100 rivets that came with a rivet setter for $6.49. I bought them to make a belt for my jedi costume. They are purely decorative in this saber and could be easily replaced with some other component or, frankly, left out completely, but if you are into total costuming I highly recommend picking up an assortment of rivets, a rivet setter, and a hole punch. They're cheap and easy to use and with them you can create some pretty nice Jedi accessories. Check out some things I used them for.
Notice that my clip is attached with rivets.

Anyway, like I said I recommend them......Brian.
