Karambit Assembly Remix (no moving parts)

thingiverse

Terrible design. Someone else had broken someone else's design, which now only has one listing left, taken down due to being unprintable. This version is printable but still hated for many reasons, yet it was posted since the last one was reported for being unprintable by me. It will go together with screws and I used a soldering iron and threaded inserts for a nicer finish. The decorative bits are best pressed in with parallel pliers or just glued in. Not tested the pins properly; they're expected to snap. Holes were knocked down to 3mm for smaller fittings, and the original pins were trash anyway. Honestly, I think the whole thing was made by someone who hadn't calibrated their flow-rate, and it must have been at 120% or more than it should have been. I'd recommend printing parts separately and using bolts & nuts/inserts (M2.5). Again, I'd actually recommend going with a different design because the last finger is half blocked with decorative shapes that look kit-bashed, and it's not worth my time to fix it. The 'Full' version has printed snappable pins to lock it in place (you could later replace with screws/bolts, but maybe they'd just last; I can't say). Tried to doughnut the joins for strength but they're a bit thin and may or may not work. Don't plan to test it as I need to get back to more urgent projects. If someone fixes the finger shape, please upload and let me know so this can be taken down.
