Description

This is the normal version, there's also a complex version made out of more than 14 pieces! Find it here: http://ultim.kr/1o1AOlE

This is the normal version which is made out of only a few pieces. Jacky, aka Valcrow, created this model for Ultimaker and wrote a guest blog about it. It's interesting to read because it shows the differences between the simple and complex version, tips & tricks on how to print it and also how to assemble it. Read it here: http://ultim.kr/1sXd3mF

Update! New blog written by Jacky about painting 3D prints, including a sweet video tutorial: http://ultim.kr/1nsrl64

Model is hand painted by Valcrow from http://redicubricks.com

Printed on:: Creality CR-10S
Result:: Came out perfect. Broke the tip of the clip off on the pommel so beware it is fragile. I would also recommend printing the Pin with a higher wall count and/or infill since it will require a bit of force to tighten. I can say from experience that the few extra minutes is well worth the alternative of digging out the broken halves from the Grip and Pommel

Hi Marc,

Unfortunately, this was not created in solidworks so there are no solid modelling 'source' files. You can use the STL files as reference however.

Marc Vino commented over 6 years ago

Hi, we're a group of students from Spain, and we would like to use your lightsaber design for a SolidWorks project. If you could provide us the plans of the different pieces of the lightsaber you would help us a lot. Thanks! Awesome design.

Printed on:: Ultimaker - Ultimaker Original
Result:: Amazing!
Feedback:: Great fit, great model. Been 3D printing for years - this is one of my favourite designs!

Tiago Santos commented over 7 years ago

Is it possible to print at 0.2? I wasn't able to make things fit at that resolution

Grimtech added this to the SW collection over 7 years ago

pierce printed this over 7 years ago

Printed on:: Prusa i3
Result:: Printed well and all went together nicely, If doing again would have done more perimeters as the connector at top snapped which is my own fault.

pierce commented almost 8 years ago

Good point, I was only doing 2 perimeters with a .4 nozzle, for next part ill bump this back up to 3 or more

Valcrow commented almost 8 years ago

You could increase number of perimeters (shell thickness) instead of infill. That will give it more strength than more infill and more efficient on materials.

pierce commented almost 8 years ago

What infil are people using for this?

Just put the grip and emitter together and snapped off the end by mistake, only at 15% infil wonder if I should have gone higher or just been less clumsy!

P.S. amazing model, looks very good quality

kythin printed this almost 8 years ago

Printed on:: Pirate 3D - Buccaneer 3D printer
