Kar98k bolt action ballpoint pen - bent bolt handle

<p>Either:</p><p>1) Print the handle alone, should be a drop in replacement</p><p>A 2 layer raft is quite necessary I fear. With a print this small it's not a concern though. Or you could slice a bit off to have a flat surface to rest on, at the cost of looks. Either way it should also be a lot stronger than the original due to the horizontal print orientation.</p><p>2) Print the whole bolt with the handle integral.</p><p>The hole for the handle weakens the bolt, the tail snapped off on mine. Printing it in one piece is much stronger, stiffer, likely quicker, and needs no assembly. Best printed standing on the thin end, with support from the build plate, or see the 3mf for PS setup. I also opted to cut off the last thin step on the bolt, eases printability here, but also doesn't dig into my finger when I push the bolt closed.</p><p>If you also want to inlet the stock for it like the original, please be my guest. I couldn't quite bother frankly</p>
