After decades of only seeing lightsabers on the big screen,\u00a0people\u00a0have long wondered whether they will ever see a real, functioning lightsaber in this lifetime. <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/new-eternals-artwork-deviant-villain-kro\/\">Disney manufactures toy collectible versions<\/a> that are made of lit-up glass. though, any true <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerant.com\/tag\/star-wars\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong><em>Star Wars<\/em><\/strong><\/a> fan would say that they&#8217;re just not the same as the real thing.<\/p>\n<p>But now, thanks to the efforts of one tinkerer on YouTube, it looks like the wait is finally over. James Hobson, a former engineer who goes by the moniker &#8220;The Hacksmith,&#8221; appears to have achieved what was once thought to be impossible. In a YouTube video he posted in October of last year, he debuted the world&#8217;s &#8220;first real working lightsaber&#8221; &#8211; one that not only shines as brightly as the ones in the movies\u00a0do, but also fully retracts and cuts through metal.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"related-single\"><strong>RELATED:\u00a0<a class=\"bc-title-link\" title=\"Star Wars: What Is The Meaning Behind Lightsaber Colors?\" href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/star-wars-lightsaber-colors-meaning\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Star Wars: What Is The Meaning Behind Lightsaber Colors?<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>His <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@guinnessworldrecords\/video\/6902148013867814146?sender_device=pc&amp;sender_web_id=6906164566222145030&amp;is_from_webapp=v1&amp;is_copy_url=0\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">video was shared on\u00a0TikTok<\/a>\u00a0by <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/star-wars-battlefront-2-loot-box-controversy-world-record\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Guinness World Records<\/a> and the clip immediately went viral, garnering nearly 22 million views and\u00a0igniting a new trend under the hashtag &#8220;#lightsaber.&#8221; Of all the attempts to recreate a lightsaber over the years, Hobson&#8217;s definitely one of the best ones:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"200\" height=\"113\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AymYhmayWz4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Hobson explains that his creation is &#8220;plasma-based,&#8221; with the\u00a0blade of light continuously burning at 4,000 degrees Fahrenheit. It is powered by compressed liquid propane and expands just as one would expect a lightsaber to; from the hilt up. The beam is so hot that it can cut through titanium with ease, as Hobson demonstrated in his video. While it probably can&#8217;t cut through almost any material like the lightsabers in the movies can, it still gives\u00a0<em>Star Wars\u00a0<\/em>fans <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/disney-star-wars-nostalgia-lesson\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">something to geek about<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, there are limitations to Hobson&#8217;s design, the most notable one being that it needs to be plugged in at all times in order for it to work. Also, <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/apex-legends-season-8-weapon-tier-list\/\">because a weapon like this is incredibly dangerous<\/a>, it&#8217;s likely not something that will be put through mass production any time soon. Even for military purposes, it would be hard to justify its use because it would be just as dangerous for the wielder as it would be for the enemy.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, it&#8217;s still satisfying to know that lightsabers <em>are\u00a0<\/em>possible to make. It&#8217;s amazing to see what we can achieve with the current advancements in technology. It&#8217;s only a matter of time before another hobbyist with cash to spend comes up with an even better version than Hobson&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"next-single\">MORE:\u00a0<a class=\"bc-title-link\" title=\"New Star Wars Book Reveals Details on Leia's Lightsaber\" href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/star-wars-book-leias-lightsaber\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New Star Wars Book Reveals Details on Leia&#8217;s Lightsaber<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@guinnessworldrecords\/video\/6902148013867814146?sender_device=pc&amp;sender_web_id=6906164566222145030&amp;is_from_webapp=v1&amp;is_copy_url=0\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Guinness World Records|TikTok<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"syndicated-attribution\"><figure class= \\\"wp-block-image alignnone \\\"><img src= \\\"http:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo2-2.png\\\" alt=\\\"IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\\\"\/><figcaption>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/br>Find A Teacher Form:\r\n<\/br>https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1vREBnX5n262umf4wU5U2pyTwvk9O-JrAgblA-wH9GFQ\/viewform?edit_requested=true#responses\r\n<\/br><\/br>Email:\r\n<\/br>public1989two@gmail.com<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>\r\n<a href=www.itsec.hk style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.hk<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itsec.vip\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.vip<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itseceu.uk\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itseceu.uk<\/a><br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>James Hobson, a former engineer, reveals the world&#8217;s first plasma-based retractable lightsaber.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1317,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"Star Wars: Video Shows Fan-Made Lightsaber That Can Cut Through Steel - ITTeacherITFreelance.hk","description":"James Hobson, a former engineer, reveals the world's first plasma-based retractable lightsaber."},"footnotes":""},"categories":[607],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215561"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1317"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=215561"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215561\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":215562,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215561\/revisions\/215562"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=215561"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=215561"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=215561"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
