After printing the saber I needed a way to attach it to a belt, so I created this! It hooks in via the open top part and slides lower, this allows it to be quite secure even while sitting as it wont pop out. The saber is free to swing length-ways but could break if swung outward as the range of motion there is really limited. 

I know this isnt ‘lore accurate’ as (the actual prop used a D-ring on the end) but oh well. Maybe in the future I'll make something akin to that!

Printing Instructions

  • Print the main body flat with supports. You shouldn't have any supports along the interior track.
  • Print the hinge part vertically, so the layer lines can withstand flexing over a belt strap. No supports.
  • Print the mounting-point with the round face flat to the build plate. Yes to supports. 

Assembly is easy, just glue the hinge to the main body and you're done! I used CA glue (superglue/krazy glue/etc) and it seems to be quite strong. This was used for attaching the mounting point to the saber, as well as the hinge to the main body.
