Lightsabers

Post by dgriff »

Because everyone at work wants one, I'm doing (very slow) mass production.

Varying levels of finish and detail on them as I'm experimenting with different software slicers and settings as I go. All of the grey pieces will be slightly acetone-smoothed before delivery :)

Still, it's a lightsabre, they will be thrilled :)

Hoping to get them done by May 4th...

I used to have long ago, before it got stolen an actual prop from starwars of darth vaders lightsaber. Someone stole it and I never saw or heard of it again ever. Probably thought it was a flashlight and threw it out.

Are you sharing the stl files for your replica?

I'm not the designer, just wanted something cool to print!

They are indeed cool to print, but time consuming is right. I hope your coworkers appreciate how much time you have invested.
