A collapsing Light up saber which will be interchangeable with all design versions I come up with
This is the Fish Version
Base model can be found here with other variant designs
Print Settings
- Supports are needed on most parts, i've used organic and snug @300%
- To print the blade segments I have found success printing them with inner and outer brims
- When printing the blade segments make sure your line width in cura is set to 0.5mm and extrusion width is set to 0.5mm in prusa slicer for perimeters
- Make sure the segments are 2 perimeters thick
- For the casing more walls are always better
Post processing
- Some of the tabs may need to be trimmed a bit i used a flush cutter
- It is designed with very tight tolerances so some trimming and sanding may be necessary depending on your printer
- The light I designed this for can be found here https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B7HNQ8FH?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
- A piece of scotch tape on the bottom of the blade segments can fix them slipping out of the previous one.
Designing your own
- I have included the Blender file to make your own version
- Use detail cutout whole casing as a Boolean to cut out your added parts so they do not interfere with the original design
