Fortnite Victory Umbrella

thingiverse

I set out to design my own Fortnight victory umbrella after being dissatisfied with what was available. I searched for files but found that they were either poor representations or not actually printable. My version is both accurate and printable. The umbrella prints in three pieces: two Brella_Half parts and one Brella_Handle. The handle stands upright on end, while the umbrella halves print standing up on the seam where they will be joined. This allows for easy and quick printing with no supports required. I printed at a .2mm layer height but believe that .16mm would result in an even better final product. After printing, use a Q-tip to apply acetone to the seam surfaces of the umbrella halves. Hold them together on a flat surface like a countertop until they bond. The same process is used for attaching the handle, although some cleaning up of the hole in the umbrella top may be necessary as well. Alternatively, simply stick the end of the handle into acetone and wait for it to soften before pushing it into the umbrella top. The melted end will squish into the hole and become bonded when the acetone evaporates in a minute or so.
