Sword of Feast and Famine

Design:

• Based off of Steve Belledin's update on Sword of Feast and Famine. http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/feature/masterpiece-series-kaladesh-inventions-2016-09-12
• This is a 9-piece print made using the max dimensions on a Makerbot Replicator5...the whole thing measures 1.03 meters in length (see image for scale)

Making it:

• Print the parts with the sword sticking straight up (see image from Makerbot software for reference). It'll make the surface of your sword nice and clean!
• There's holes alone the axis to attach parts using wooden dowels (the Ikea furniture method). You can find those here https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000PCEUW2/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 or at your local hardware store. They add axial strength, and when you use them with wood glue they will expand and fit nicely.
• I printed mine in ABS at 15%. There was some warping, but since it's along the edges it wasn't too bad. If you cluster your pieces densely as in the picture there will not be a lot of perimeter on the raft to lift and warp :)
• Glue and/or putty the joints smooth and secure, add some rattan straw, floral wire, and ivy https://www.amazon.com/Bird-Fiy-Artificial-Dalloween-Decorations/dp/B015OQJFH8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1474295834&sr=8-2&keywords=ivy and enjoy!
