To fix saber damage and take away the Str component, why not just re-skin the Chainsaw from the core book? It even already has a rule for accidentally chopping your own bits off.
Spot on! Though i'd have an Edge that ignored the fumble part, ie Lightsaber training.
It's exactly what I used in my Savage SW sessions, and it worked perfectly. The "str dumping" could be an issue so; but i guess it's a small price to pay for simplicity. We also house ruled that anyone facing a lightsaber (without a lightsaber at hand) is considered "Unarmed", giving a nice +2 to lightsaber attack; it fits well the "cut-through-anything" part of the lightsaber.
And we created a new Edge, "Jedi training", which removes the fumble possibility of the chainsaw and allows to use the Defense action against ranged attacks.

Of course, and also add some AP.
And maybe make it a Heavy Weapon? I doubt it would ever do enough damage to bring down a Star Destroyer, but it could cut into bulkheads and stuff. _________________
