Judas Priest British Steel

The edges are sharp, if you tried you could probably cut yourself. I read that the band wanted to have blood on the blade but the record label wouldn't let them. Printed on a stock/single extruder Ender 3 v2 using Z-offset to print the black text on top of the silver blade. The v2 glass bed was ‘upgraded’ to the stock Ender 3 pro magnetic mat. I highly recommend this upgrade. First pic: Geeetech Silk PLA Filament A-silk-silver & Solutech PLA Real Black, it is stunning. I printed normal pla temp and speed, end 200, bed 60, speed 50.
