When I go to ‘my’ page on MakerWorld, since I have over a thousand, it
displays the statistics (Likes, Downloads, and Makes) in thousands (ex
1.2k). Is there a way to display the actual number? I would really
like to know when these numbers go up, but I can only see an increase
when there is an over a hundred change.

I have a suggestion for your Iron Man MK5 Helmet Wearable. How about modifying the eye pieces to have a slot that the LED Light Eye kits could slid into? AliExpress gives their version's dimensions at 27.5x69.5 and I would assume about 5mm thick. This would allow them to be easily replaced or exchanged for different colors. I have ordered a set to add behind the mesh, but you could also provide option not to have the mesh. I am not certain this will get to you this way, so I will also add this comment to your MK5 page.

For some reason Bambu Studio would not let me rate this 5 stars - said I didn't have a successful print, which I obviously did. So I reprinted again at 15%. There is no picture here of the 15% print, but here are the orginal picures of my first print.

First, great design, but reading the reviews, it appears no one had a problem with the 0.12 layer height except me. The tops always came out but the cones on the bottom failed. So, I used 0.08 mm layer height and the cone also came out looking good. I also changed the "support/object first layer gap" to 0.5mm and the "support/object xy distance" to 0.5mm. This made it easier to remove the support.
Reading the license wording it is obvious no one can create another model from this but I am, not certain if I can upload another profile - I will upload it but it may get taken down.
In any case, great design!

Glued adapter to bottom and everything worked great.
Thanks for the design.

After printing the smaller version of this I decided to try the larger one. Came out essentially perfect. I used Eryone metal multicolor silk. Great transition. The only think I would change, my fault, was on the smaller version I used variable layer height and I forgot to do that on the large one. It still came out looking great but when I print again I will remember to use the variable layer height. As soon as I have a boost to give, you will certainly get it. Thanks for the print! You are making my Easter a lot more fun.

Great design. While it is more consistent with the iris down, it works most of the time either way. Printed with Sunlu PLA+ Red Copper. Also, I printed with variable layer height for smooth surface on top. And, my scrapper didn't work and my exacto knife worked great.

I just wanted to again thank Andy (@user_3017984561)
for a great design and locking mechanism. I wish I could send another boost. I did add a profile for an option for additional tool heads and socks, but I love this design!

Great little print. Since the infill is only 8%, when I printed with transparent purple, I received a little unexpected treat when there is light behind the model..

@Darthkevan I am answering your question here. It seems to have been deleted from the "Locking Blade Saber (Collapsible, Modular #8)" site. I used the short, 3.5 inch, version for this and I also consistently use the short mini-flashlight for all the sabers I designed.If you are referring to the 2 short blades, there is no provision for lighting these - they are just red translucent filament.

I am having trouble posting my make of my new light-saber. I have tried several times without apparent success. Any help would be appreciated.
