That does not look too bad to me but to be a real lightsaber, it needs is a subtle glow effect radiating from the edges of the beam. Making something like that would require partial transparency support, which Graal currently does not support which I hope they will sometime in the near future.
I played around with the latest post of your lightsaber Donald and decided to see if I could find a way to get the beam to glow right using the current versions of graal. Without partial transparency support, there is no true way of getting effects like the one I made into Graal.
Here is a screenshot taken from Photoshop so you can all see the glow effect and I am sharing the Photoshop file itself if you want to look at the glow effect and alpha channel on your end.

Maybe Graal will support partial trans in the near future; at least I can dream it will anyway.
