Technomancer Adept Staff Head

thingiverse

I'm excited about this lighted staff head project, which marks the beginning of a series of hobby projects aimed at developing my technical skills as a technomancer adept. This initial endeavor will hopefully pave the way for future creations that showcase my growth and proficiency. To avoid losing track of the files amidst other ongoing projects, I've decided to post this update now, while all the necessary documentation is still readily available. Once completed, the build instructions will be shared on my blog, allowing others to replicate the project with ease. The design involves printing various components in opaque filaments, except for the crystal which will be printed using a translucent material. To achieve a realistic finish, I recommend painting the parts, including applying a clear coat to the crystal if PLA is used as the primary material. This staff head is built around several key components: Mini Maglite: A compact flashlight that serves as the light source. Threaded broom handle: A sturdy and adjustable handle that provides a comfortable grip. For added customization, you can integrate a colored filter to alter the color of the gem's glow. Please note that an additional component is required to connect this staff head to the broom handle. Due to limitations at the time of writing, I couldn't design a suitable threaded connector, so I've posted it separately as a derivative file on Thingiverse.
