Portal Gun Pedestal Stand - Portal / Portal 2

thingiverse

After exhausting online searches for a suitable Portal Gun stand model, I decided to take matters into my own hands and export one myself! Three versions are available: Short, Tall, and Individual Pieces. The Short version would look fantastic on a shelf or desk. The Tall design may be impractical to 3D print, but some individuals might still want a Tall stand, so it's included for reference purposes. Individual Pieces feature holes designed for PVC pipe connections: 1 inch in diameter for the Base Top and Base Bottom, and 3/4 inch in diameter for the two holders and display plate. Since I haven't yet built the stand, you'll likely need to experiment with lengths to determine what works best. Heating and bending the PVC used for the holders can help achieve the right shape; there are numerous YouTube tutorials available on this process. The models are scaled roughly to life-size, but you should adjust them according to your Portal Gun's dimensions if you plan to use it as a display for your replica. All included models are yours to use, print, remix, and enjoy! I followed this guide to export the model from Portal 2: https://www.reddit.com/r/Portal/comments/8nx41i/is_there_any_way_to_get_the_actual_ingame_portal/. While the guide works for exporting models from the game, its completeness or usability is another story altogether.
