Witcher Inspired attachments for Rawlings Sparring Swords

thingiverse

This is a series of parts designed to replace the stock pommel, hilt, and handle of a synthetic Rawlings fencing longsword. The top and bottom furniture pieces for construction of a scabbard are also included in this set. Please note that these parts are not meant to be used as a complete sword. I make no promises about how well they will hold up to prolonged sparring. They are intended for stage combat and/or cosplay purposes only. To assemble the sword, you'll need the following materials: Sword: - Rawlings Sparring Longsword - M8 Nut - Two Part Expoxy - Leather and waxed cord (Optional) Scabbard: - Tape or Glue - Large sheet of thin cardboard - Fiberglass resin (Optional) To assemble the sword, follow these steps: 1. Attach the M8 Nut to the inside of the desired pommel. 2. For a wrapped handle, glue the top and bottom of the "witcher_waisted_v3" files together at their matching parts to form a ring around a waisted hilt. Then, wrap the handle in leather and sew it together using a baseball stitch. 3. Alternatively, for an unwrapped handle, use the "Witcher_waisted_thick" file. You may want to split it in half and print it as two pieces. Once you've completed these steps, slide the hilt, handle, and pommel into place, and you're done! To assemble the scabbard: 1. Wrap the Rawlings longsword tightly with cardboard and secure it with tape or glue. 2. Apply 2-3 coats of fiberglass resin to the scabbard for added durability (optional but highly recommended). 3. Wrap the scabbard in cloth and sew it around the sword. 4. Attach the Witcher_tip_v5.stl piece to the bottom of the scabbard and the Witcher_scabbard_v3.stl piece to the top. Remember to test fit the completed sword to the scabbard between each step to ensure a secure fit. Note that the scabbards are interchangeable with other swords.
