I was asked to make this staff from the movie "Wish" for a cosplay. I made it and think it turned out alright, so I want to share it with you all!

If you want to recreate it, you will need:

  • Two 14mm x 1000mm wooden rods
  • A drill
  • A wooden dowel (same size as the drill bit)
  • Some glue

Optional for lighting up:

  • 9V battery
  • 9V battery connector
  • On/off switch
  • Wires
  • LED strips
  • Laminated green paper

I used the picture I added as a reference for the staff. It looks a bit different in the movie, but I liked this version more. The whole project revolves around the two wooden rods. I needed to connect them for this to work, so I drilled a hole in the middle of each rod, inserted the dowel, used a lot of glue, and then clamped them together. After doing that, I noticed that they were really unstable. I couldn't think of an option to keep them firmly in place without it being very visible. I decided to design a handle that isn't in the concept drawing or the movie, but it wouldn't be as noticeable and would also give you some grip strength.

To make the part that lights up, I printed the "inside light" part twice and put them together as shown in the drawing. After that, I put the LED strip inside and connected it to a 9V battery. After making sure everything worked, I put the battery into the empty space in the light and added an on/off switch in the handle (I drilled out a part of the handle to make it work—not pretty, but it works very well) and then connected everything through the wires. I glued them into this spiral formation to fit the look. I laminated some green paper and cut it out in the diamond pattern of the light. After all that was done, I used the "outside light" part to hold everything together. I didn't glue the lower part, so I could change the battery if necessary.

After that, it was just a simple process of printing the rest of the parts, putting them on the rods, and coloring everything accordingly.
