Xiphos

thingiverse

I created this sword, Xiphos, for my own enjoyment, drawing inspiration from the iconic weapon of ancient Greece. Since there are currently no xiphos available on Thingiverse, I decided to share it with you, hoping it might be useful. Using Autodesk Inventor, I designed and crafted this sword, carefully tuning the clearances to ensure a seamless fit on FDM printers. This design is specifically optimized for my M3D Micro printer, which can handle models scaled to 0.85, while also fitting comfortably onto a regular FDM printer platform like Makerbot or Flashforge. Although my printer is currently inactive, I'm eager to see how the finished product looks in real life. If you'd like to bring Xiphos to life, feel free to download the files and print one out; I'd love to see your photos when it's complete!
