Description
So I decided to continue (re)mixing CaseStudyno8´s designs (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1866782) and 3DPRINTINGWORLD´s ideas (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3606120) to create my own Yoda's collapsing lightsaber. So again I remodeled the whole thing to fit the collapsible blade. Multiple parts were put together so it is less about gluing and more about layer color changes within the print. The Blade is also remodeled. It has a steeper angle, so it is not so thin at the end which also helped the blade to be longer and broader. Plus the tip curve fits better.
It is modeled with the same tolerances, so I hope it will work as well as it did before.
Download, print and enjoy! :)
