Orvillian blaster Remix

thingiverse

This is a remix/mod of the fantastic Orville blaster made by BiancaW. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2623867 First off, thanks go out to Bianca for the great sculpting - working from screen caps can be tough. As episodes kept rolling out with more detail, I tweaked the blaster to fit the changes. The overall size is a bit bigger and thicker, and the grip has been extended to accommodate a larger hand. I made the front shroud angle more acute. Three breakaway supports were added to the nose for easier printing. A hollow was created on top for a lighted display using a T-1 LED, and channels for a AAA battery pack and wire runs were put into each half. (See photo of wiring diagram) The trigger mechanism is a plunger designed to work with mini pushbuttons, and three T-5 LED sockets are hollowed in the nose emitter. The trigger well has a breakaway support, as well as the trigger plunger shaft. On the right half, four small holes were drilled for thin case screws (pilot holes will need to be added.) I included a channel in the grip to add an optional master micro slide switch, but a fresh set of batteries will power the top display for an entire weekend of cosplay without needing to change them.
