You can use scissors if you’d like but it’s much more difficult. Never use a knife or scissors without a parent present.
Make sure that the final wrap is a straight horizontal line around the tube.
Wrap the rings so that they’re perfectly parallel to each other.
Each vertical piece of black tape should have about 1 inch (2. 5 cm) of space between the lower black ring and the bottom of the lightsaber.
Wrap the entire tube in packing tape for more durability.
Don’t use scissors without a parent present.
Insert the filling material piece by piece and don’t overstuff the tube!
Be sure to wrap the paper evenly so that the top and bottom are perfectly horizontal. Swap black paper for gray if you’d like—whatever you think looks the coolest!
To make things easier, cut small lines into the tape to attach to the tube.
Look at lightsaber pictures for inspiration when creating buttons for your handle. If you want, cut out different shapes—get creative!
