Rey's New Lightsaber

###I started a YouTube channel! Check it out: https://www.youtube.com/@Wiseprints206

Hey everyone!

10.15.2025: I revisited this design, and the pictures are trash and do not do the design justice. I need to reprint this and take new pictures because the design looks really great and the pictures do not.

2.12.2020: This is the last update (4.3) that this post will get, the next update will be a whole new saber. Blade, electronics, rechargeable, the whole burrito. I'm working on getting the blade to glow how I like it right now, because I want to make it look really good. You can see in this recent update how the top cone is swappable, this function will be used to make the saber turn on and off in the final version. Small note, the top cone is meant to be printed 2 times, and you add the very top section to the cone. Also, all the cones do not need supports.

These are the magnets I use to keep the cones connected to the saber (5x2mm refrigerator magnets):

1.28.2020: Big update! The gear now spins to turn the saber on! The new saber parts have 3.0 in the name so it should be easy to identify them. I still would like to make a top that is opened up for this in the future, so this is to hold everyone over.

Note: don't print the top piece with supports having 45 degree or less supports, as inside the shaft of the saber there is a 45 degree angle. Happy printing!

12.23.2019: I Just made some changes to some dimensions that I believe make the saber more accurate to the movie. Larger diameter, slightly shorter cones on the end, slightly shorter leather/cloth wrapped section, slightly larger hole in the middle so its almost exactly 1 inch (i figured it would be better for people who want to add blades). Also I changed the way the two pieces interlock with each other so it looks cleaner. I left the old files here if you like them better you can print them. This project is not completed yet though! I plan to add a clicking switch mechanism for the gear, so you can flick it on like in the movie! after that I may add fins in the open position where the blade extrudes, so stay tuned!

12.22.2019: So I uploaded pictures of what my print looks like, i'm modifying a couple of dimensions very slightly (its honestly really close right now, you probably wont be able to tell any discrepancies) and will update the files in the next 3 days, I'm hoping it will be complete before Christmas!

First edit: I moved the gear to switch the saber on, down the handle by 2 mm. Also, it definitely needs supports. It prints well when the saber blade is facing straight toward the bed of the printer.

This is Rey's new lightsaber! For some reason the pictures are streched but it's really not that pudgey. I'll upload pictures of my print when it's finished. I believe it is the first public version in the world, It may not be exactly perfectly accurate, but its the best I could do with absolutely no reference material. Before any of you start shouting about "its the same as the end of her staff" its actually not. It is very similar but there are quite a few minor changes. I'll maybe update my description later but for now I just want to get this out there before anyone else lol. Will print this ASAP and let you know more.

Now the size I believe to be correct but I may scale it up or down a bit depending on how it looks post print. If one of you fellas get to it before me leave feedback in the comments! Also the middle section should be covered up by some cloth of some kind.

REMEMBER if you are going to print and sell this please just give me artist credit, thank you so much!
Also tips are always nice :)
