Description
A recreation of the character Lie Ren's pistols, known as Stormflower. While it is mostly accurate, it is slightly changed to make certain parts print in a single piece and to increase comfort. Such pieces include the magazine not including the flat bit at the bottom to print in one piece and the handle having a flange instead of being completely straight to make the grip slip less
I already have main pistol body finished. Printing out the blade now.
Main body printed at .1 mm, grips at .08. Alignment dots and pin at .1, Blades at .12
It's a slight work in progress as in: I'm still printing it out and I need to make sure the parts fit within reasonable tolerances. Once I can confirm that, I will take it out of WIP and post pictures.
UPDATE NOTES:
Changed the way the blade top and blade bottom join together. Should be a more stable and easier connection
Finished printing the grips, alignment dots and the pin for the blade and have assembled them without glue (hence the gap in the main body: it is slightly warped, but nothing some CA glue and some clamps can't fix!) Decided to post some pictures to show that it is possible to print. Tolerance can get quite small, so if you can't assmble with .2 mm tolerance, then please offset accordingly. Else sand at your own risk.
