Morningstar from Netflix's Castlevania

thingiverse

The iconic Morningstar whip from the Netflix adaptation of Castlevania is currently under development, with a focus on perfecting its final detail: the whip's end. To facilitate collaboration and review, I've also included the STEP file for this project. A crucial update was made on March 19th, 2019, when an attempt was made to print out the design using my Prusa Mk3. Unfortunately, the top section proved too tall for the printer, suggesting that it might be necessary to slice the model into smaller parts. This is a critical consideration, especially given the whip's delicate chain holder, which has a tendency to snap under stress. To address this issue and simplify reassembly, I've incorporated a 1/8-inch (3.275mm) hole along the length of the whip handle. Note: The actual diameter of this hole is slightly reduced to 3.25mm, taking into account the potential for FDM material to swell during printing.
