Sword and shield keycover

🛡️ Shield Keys – 6 Designs + 3 Interchangeable Pommel Styles

This project transforms an ordinary key into a miniature sword by combining a pommel, a shield, and the key blade itself.
No glue required — the parts snap securely into place. Designed for standard flat keys with a 23 mm head width.

⚔️ How it works

• Pommel (3 styles) → Forms the sword handle 
• Shield (6 designs) → Covers the key head
• Blade → The actual metal part of the key

🎨 The 6 Shield Designs

1. Hylian Shield (The Legend of Zelda)
2. Templar Cross
3. Stylized Sun
4. Captain America Shield
5. Wood & Metal Viking Shield
6. Blue & White Thegn-style Viking Shield

🛠️ Printing & Assembly

• FDM 3D printing – PLA recommended
• Two-piece shield shell snaps around the key head
• Pommel clips onto the shield – no glue required
• Perfect fit for standard keys with a 23 mm wide head

📌 Recommendations

• Make sure the key is oriented so that the blade aligns with the pommel.
• You may need to apply light pressure to fully insert the pommel.
• Use glue stick or other bed adhesion aid on the print bed for better first layer grip.

💡 All pommels and shields are separate files so you can mix and match for custom combos.
