*Whistles* Thats a really nice picture! ..makes you wonder how much time she regularly spends cleaning sand out of everything. How much does he charge for work like this?

Awesome bit of art! Love the small "slice of life" of a Jedi doing maintenance on their saber.
Although I dearly hope that's not the business end of the lightsaber she's peering into - or that, if it is, she's got the power cells unhooked...

That IS superb work. And if she's a full Knight, I think she's probably had such stupidity as peering down her own weapon's "bad guy" end beaten out of her by now. At any rate, the end pointing away from her looks to me like a lens....

See the emitter lens at the far end of the saber? I think that suggests she's not an idiot, and has been taught proper weapons safety.

Okay. Speaking as someone who's worked on machinery of all shapes and sizes. First rule, no exceptions. Power source. Remove.
In short, she's not a fucking moron that'd be kicked out of the Order.
That's Guss Tuno, one of the Smugglers companions, who not only stole a lightsaber on the way out, but can't figure out how to turn it on. (No. Really)

Granted, Zeldani there would not make that mistake. BUT! Due to this commission, I now have the mental image of a battle-scarred old Jedi Master with an eyepatch.
Padawan: Master... when you lost your eye, was it a great battle?
Master: ...
Padawan: Was it during the siege of Antares V? When you defeated the Sith lord Darth Wombus in single combat?
Master: ...
Padawan: Or was it that time on Naboo, when the invading army was destroying the temple with artillery fire?
Master: Padawan, the lesson you should learn from my missing eye is this: Details. Matter.
Padawan: I... don't understand.
Master: You will if you keep using your lightsaber that way.
