Hi, I'd have to do more research, but I can think of another instance where a Jedi student created a light saber that could double his blade length. Do you remember in the Jedi Academy series the guy who Exar Kune attempted to convert to the dark side before Kip?
At any rate he built a light saber that could double and I think tripple his light sabers length, and gave Luke Skywalker a real surprise in the bargon. Up until that point I don't believe the Star Wars books really had discussed alternative designs for light sabers. Of course, now that we have the Clone Wars era out in cartoon and books we've had a chanse to observe several different light saber designs using different lengths, colors, and handles themselves seamed to be customized for an individual Jedi. This same thing seams to be happening in the Knights of the Old Republic series too. So I'm sure this trick with doubling blade length is bound to turn up again somewhere. Cheers!
