Viking Spool Shield

Description
🛡️ Snap, Screw, and Shield On!
Transform the outer ring of an empty cardboard filament spool into a mighty Viking-style shield with this easy-to-print design! All you need is a standard 200mm diameter spool ring (about 3mm thick) and a few printed parts — no supports required!
This set includes 4 parts:
- Shield-Bottom: Cradles the spool ring and provides the foundation.
- Shield-Top: Snaps onto the top edge of the spool ring to lock everything together. (Note: due to its thin profile, I recommend a bit of glue for extra durability — especially if used for battle!)
- Shield-Center: Decorative dome with rivets for that classic Viking look.
- Handle+Thread: Screws through the center of the spool and into the Shield-Center for a strong, secure grip.
🧒 The handle is intentionally small — perfect for young adventurers and mini warriors!
🎨 Add your own twist with paint, or stickers for an even more Viking feel.
