Printing

Several printing options are available: the blade may be printed upright (parts with “vertical” in the filename) or horizontally split in half ("Blade * half" in the filename), and the hilt can be printed “pre-assembled” or as separate parts.

  • To print the “pre-assembled” hilt, print “Hilt half” once in normal orientation, and once after mirroring in your slicer.
  • To print the separated hilt, print “Midsection + handle half” and “Pommel half” twice in normal orientation, and “Heron half” once in normal orientation and once mirrored.
  • To print the blade vertically, print all the parts with “vertical” in the filename once.
  • To print the blade horizontally, print “Blade bottom half” and “Blade tip half” twice.

Printing the blade vertically is recommended, as the horizontal version has a very noticeable split down the middle. However, the print may come out incredibly weak with some silk filaments when printed vertically; in that case, the horizontal version is better.

The STLs are designed to fit the Prusa Mk4. Different versions of the model are available in the Blender file if you wish to make your own cuts.

Assembly

To assemble the print, you will need a cylindrical rod, 4 mm in diameter and 585 mm in length. Steel is recommended, but wood or plastic also work. Also highly recommended are some alignment dowels for the blade. These should be roughly 1.6 mm in diameter (1.75 mm filament can also work, but only if you can print extremely tight horizontal tolerances), and can either be 360 mm in length (if you want them to run the full length of the blade), or shorter if you only use them at the cuts. In the latter case, you will need two when printing horizontally or 4 when printing vertically. If you have them run the full length of the blade, you will always need 2.

Ideally, use a 2-component glue when assembling everything, and make sure to clamp it down.

The prints as pictured

The pink sword is printed with Polymaker PolyLight Rose Gold PLA filament. SUNIN7 SEM17 Metallic Red and SEM24 Blood Red paints are used for the handle and beak (pure metallic red for the handle, and a mix of the two for the beak). Tamiya X-10 Gun Metal paint is used for the eyes.

The green sword is printed with Eryone Emerald Green Silk PLA and Polymaker PolyLite Sparkle Dark Green PLA filaments. SUNIN7 SEM19 Metallic Green and Tamiya X-10 Gun Metal paints are used for the beak and eyes, respectively.
