Proton Pack Thrower Hand Grip Parametric(ish)

thingiverse

A detailed, large-scale, fully-realizable three-dimensional printable version of the handle from the Ghostbusters' Proton Pack proton gun. The entire assembly will soon be broken down into individual components, allowing for nearly complete three-dimensional printable production. The only component that cannot be produced using 3D printing techniques is the grip handle, which should be created from 1.25-inch PVC tubing. My rendition of the grip consists of two parts: one is curved to accommodate the front/rear tube of the proton pack. The STL file included corresponds to a 1.25-inch outer diameter pipe. The OpenSCAD file enables users to alter the base dimensions according to their preferred tube diameter (within sensible limits). This file also provides an option for incorporating a cable channel into the base component, with adjustable settings via cableChannelDepth, suitable values being between 3 and 4 millimeters for typical applications. Approximate grip dimensions measure around 120 millimeters in length, 38 millimeters in width, and 35 millimeters in height.
