can Non-forcers actually make a lightsaber

[Aerin Kath]

I've read in many places that to even make a lightsaber that the person needs to be force sensitive.
I'm going to make a lightsaber for research purposes, and I'd like to see what the factory would think.

please be gentle

No, a non force user cannot make a lightsaber without the aid of a Force Sensitive. [member="Aerin The Lost"]

Yes, they can, but not as powerful.

Tapani Lightfoils:

"However, the knockoff lightfoils apparently did not require any connection to the Force to create, and were fully usable by non-Force sensitives.[1]"

Morgukai Cortosis Staves:

"The top of the staff can emit a small plasma blade just like that of a lightsaber."
