scale shield for a legendary hero with a Link to a princess named Zelda

thingiverse

This shield should look familiar to you now. Since I couldn't find a good one to share, I designed my own model instead. It's printed in 11 separate ABS pieces that are later bonded together using Acetone. To boost my community standing in the world of 3D printing, I'm offering it to you right now. Enjoy this gift! (edit) It was pointed out that the scaling on these prints is incredibly small and I failed to provide clear instructions on what to scale up to. This lack of detail was a result of laziness on my part, and if I can overcome this flaw, I'll make sure to fix it properly in the future. For now, the middle piece should be around 8"x8" when measuring from end to end. To achieve this size, use a scaling percentage of about 97,000% in simplify3D. Apply the same scaling factor to each shield base piece, but leave the handle as is since it's already at the correct scale.
