Description
An upgrade on my previous model of ODM Gear for the Dummy 13! First of all, check out the original Dummy:

This version includes the gas mechanism, hook shooters with the options for wires, functional scabbards, and swords with detachable blades. I've finally reached a point where I'm satisfied with the amount of features, which allow for very cool poses and general messing around. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
Printing and Assembly
The printing profile is optimized for the 0.2mm nozzle, but everything is printable with a 0.4, as no detail is smaller than its layer lines. You can absolutely use the provided profile and simply switch the nozzle type while keeping everything else the same. Always keep Arachne on!
The kit requires a couple of modifications to the dummy's armour to allow the attachments to go in. The modified waist and thighs are provided in the files, and you should assemble them as you would with the original dummy. The thighs can be easily swappable on an already built dummy, but the waist might be slightly trickier to disassemble; I would suggest printing a new crotch armour and hip frame singularly and assembling it directly with the modified waist.
The gas mechanism needs to be assembled with the spools, which can be fragile, so be careful. Once inserted some glue or heat can help in permanently locking it in place, but this is optional. You can then insert the assembly on the back of the waist.
The hook shooters have their dedicated slots on the side of the waist. They also have a little hole for a wire: I found that calibration strips work extremely well, just knot one of the ends. A single wire easily supports the weight of the Dummy, so you can get pretty creative with the poses.
Finally, the hilts can work both in regular and reverse grip. I'd suggest printing both them and blades in a sturdier material than PLA, as they can break, but PLA still works. The blades fit all the way inside the scabbards.
Conclusion
I had a great deal of fun designing and testing this kit, and I'm very happy with how it came out, as it does everything I wanted it to do. My next step will be adding thunder spears, and trying to model the Anti-personnel Gear variant from season 3, so stay tuned for more! If you liked the model, consider boosting, it's free!
