Slide out LIGHT SABER!!!

thingiverse

This thing was made with Tinkercad, which can be edited online at https://www.tinkercad.com/things/dNdRjksUHDY. I had just watched the new Star Wars movie before its official U.S. release with my friend Bailey N., and we knew it would introduce the franchise in an exciting way. Upon getting home, I wondered if anyone had created a working lightsaber yet, but unfortunately not. So, I started making a really bad-looking non-functional prototype. Eventually, Bailey joined online and decided to make a model with the look of the current one, so it now looks like his creation but functions just like the toy ones, which have the slide-out feature. Print Settings Printer Brand Robo 3D Printer R1 PLA Model Rafts Yes Supports Yes Resolution .2mm Infill .25% Notes Lightsaber blades print better when rafts are used and there's no support material on the laser parts. The laser parts should be printed with a perimeter layer thickness of 2 mm. To assemble the hilt, glue it together after the laser parts have been inserted properly, as some areas require small amounts of support material - specifically the two nubs at the back and the rounded part that needs to be supported underneath its circular attachment area or square stub on one side requires minimal amount of it too. If you find the details about nubs, stubs, etc confusing then I wouldn't blame you either!
