Another Jyn Erso Baton

prusaprinters

<p>This is not so much a remix, but ant82's remix (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2089542) is where I started and used it as a guide. This model is larger and assembles in an entirely different manner. It also uses a spring loaded shuttle to hold the shaft in the extended and collapsed positions.</p><p>Assembled this is 337.86mm before it is extended. The longest single part is the Upper Body which is 195mm long.</p><p>TinkerCAD model if you want to make adjustments: <a href="https://www.tinkercad.com/things/71kvCYmMxr5">https://www.tinkercad.com/things/71kvCYmMxr5</a></p><p>Design goals:</p><ul><li>Minimal non-printed hardware</li><li>Print all parts vertically with limited supports</li><li>Ease of assembly/minimal glue</li><li>Stays open or closed regardless of (non-excessive) movement.</li></ul><p>Multi-material handle so no painting is required if using a MMU or Palette Required Hardware:</p><p>1 300mm long, 20mm OD, 15mm ID tube</p><ul><li>example</li></ul><p>1 20mm M5.08 socket head screw</p><ul><li>example</li></ul><p>1 M5 nut</p><ul><li>example</li></ul><p>1 7/32" x 11/16" compression spring</p><p>1 drop of thread locker Printing notes:</p><p>Print 2 copies of Nipple</p><p>These notes are based on printing with a Prusa MK3S.

Warnings:</p><p>Don't really hit people with it.</p><ul><li>It's a prop, it likely won't hold up to really hitting anything.</li></ul><p>Don't open the baton by swinging it. The nipples in the shuttle aren't likely to hold that well. Note: I haven't run a print of "Handle - Single", but it should work just fine.</p><p>My print information:</p><p>Prusa MK3S + MMU2s</p><ul><li>PushPlastic Silver @0.1mm for the Shuttle parts and Center</li><li>PushPlastic Silver &amp; Black @0.15mm for the Handle as a single MMU print</li><li><a href="https://www.amazon.com?linkCode=ll2&amp;tag=thingiverse09-20&amp;linkId=e4759bff1fa9a55a0f897d801ce2d765&amp;language=en_US&amp;ref_=as_li_ss_tl">Amazon</a>/Overture PETG for the Body pieces and end cap</li><li>The "Upper Body" and "Center" were the only parts to use supports<ul><li>For the body I used a support enforcer for the first 40mm on the inside of the housing<ul><li>For the center I printed it vertically and supported from the build plate only</li></ul></li></ul></li></ul><p>Category: Costume</p>
