I really liked the design cues, separate pieces and assembly process of Sedak's design, but any modification I wanted to do besides resizing was really cumbersome because of the files given. So I took some measurements and remade the entire geometry in CAD software, while also modifying certain pieces and dimensions. All in all, the specific changes are as follows: Scaled to 75% of original size (except for the head plate)Remade the whole head plate since most of the piece was just hanging on top of my head without being supported, so the extra geometry felt unnecessaryCombined the center stone base and the center stone cap pieces into one. I found the thin walls of the base were prone to failure when fitting all the pieces together. Plus it made sense to me to simplify the amount of partsRemade the whole geometry of the piece for easier modificationChanged the shape of the wing pieces, making them thinner at the edges for a sleeker lookChanged the snap fit system to a press fit one. It may be my filament but I found the snap fit pieces to break off easily. The final piece still stays together but I recommend glue and maybe a few filament tack welds if possible. Exported the files to a step format so it's easier to use in any CAD software and make further modifications
