Praetorian Whip Sword

Remix of the praetorian sword by silverdelta14. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2751306 NOTE: The pieces here are complete, but trying to work out logistics of how to make it convert from sword to whip and back again. Any input appreciated!! Shortened the tri-tube pieces and only included the ones that are needed for the print. The handle piece is based on pictures I have found and isn't going to be 100% accurate but I think is pretty close. The handle is split into 3 STLs. One is the combined inner and outer for printing all at once. For the other 2 handle pieces I separated the inner core from the outer layer. That way to get the 2 tone coloring you could paint the inner, or print in a different color material, then slide it into the outer shell. Just have to be careful if painting not to scratch the paint as you slide the inner into the outer. Overall length should be approximately 54" when stacked together. For the ridged pieces you WILL need support set to everywhere and best to print all pieces with atleast a brim. One piece of the smooth tri-tubes is designed to slide into the top of the handle and can be glued in place. There is empty space below each tube to allow for extra paracord (or similar rope) so the sword can be used in both "whip" and "Sword" configurations. Magnets will likely be needed to keep each section together in "sword" configuration. I welcome all feedback!!
