Description

The Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch from Monty Python's Holy Grail.

There are a number of excellent existing versions of the HHOG, but I was looking for a version that was more modular (both for ease of painting and for printing in color filaments).

Couple of notes:

  • there are two sets of pearls for the top half....one is very slightly shorter than the other to fit around the cross.
  • the tolerances are pretty tight, especially for the pearls that go around the middle ("equatorial pearls"). You may need to either increase the size by a percent or two or do a little sanding if they are too tight.
  • There are two versions of the cross. One is just half and can be printed flat (you'll need two), the other is complete (to avoid the seam) but prints upright and requires support.

In the pictures are both painted examples (representing what the prop looks like now), and one printed using gold silk with no post-processing. Nice to have options.

For the painted version, I used the following spray paints (from the orange big box store):

  • BEHR Hammered Burnished Amber Gloss Spray
  • Rustolium 2x Ultracover in Heirloom White Satin
  • Rustolium Bright Coat Metallic Finish Bright Coat Gold

For the gold print, Inland Gold Silk (PLA), White(PLA+), Green (PLA), Blue (PLA+)
