Makonde Dagger

A video of the finished dagger is available here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iVzFl22-RfzYUSCQUTZ8EYkEC1lRGatY This is my attempt at creating the Punished Props Academy Community Build of the Makonde Dagger designed by Jonah Lobe. I wanted to give this project a try to see if I could create it using Fusion360, print, and finish it. I gained a lot of knowledge about Fusion360 and was once again surprised by the quality of the Ultimaker machine. The inside of the blade took me longer than it should have taken. I needed several attempts to get this part done. Other than Bill in the build video, I did not add the hammered metal effect to the model. I printed all parts using an Ultimaker 2+ and Innofill ABS filament. All parts were sliced with Cura. All parts aside from the handle required some small supports. The full blade was too large to fit in the Ultimaker 2+ build space, so I also included a two-part version of the blade. Additionally, one version of the tip of the blade comes with custom supports. I plan to attach everything using acetone slurry, sand it, and then use some acetone vapor later on to make it smooth. I would like to extend my gratitude to Punished Props for creating all these inspirational build videos and projects.
