10-Apr-2025: A lot of people have issues wih the blade fusing inside the pickle. So I've added a profile with separte blades and pickle. Print the blades first and assemble them. Then start the pickle print and it will pause right before it seals the blade shaft. Insert the assembled blades into the paused print then resume the print. This also allows you to have a pickle with different coloured blades :)

 

I printed the blade in red first then dropped them into the pickle when it paused. The different colors make it obvious that they were separate prints.

 

 

 

Dont ask, and you shall receive! Introducing the Pickle Sickle, a collapsing curved short sword located neatly inside a plastic pickle! 

 

 

You people enjoyed my previous food based weaponry, so I've expanded the collection once more. This time in pickle form.

 

You can tell by my pics that my pickle is a bit off color… I ran out of the nice green I had during the testing phase and had to use Sunlu Meta Green.. not my first choice of green for this project but it's still pretty pickly so it'll do!

 

All you need is a can do attitude and 4 - 6x3mm magnets and before you know it, you'll have your new favorite pocket pickle sickle.

 

 

Fun fact: I went with sickle in the name purely for the rhyme.. it's clearly not a sickle.. but it's a curved blade so.. close enough.

P.S. I've included a simple little display stand on plate#2 of the profile so you can really highlight how awesome it is on your shelf.

 

 

Enjoy!

“Why is a phallic looking object sitting on your desk?” my wife asked. “It’s a PICKLE! DUH!” I exclaimed. I stood up excited to show her what it can do. WHOOSH! “It’s the pickle sickle!” she rolled her eyes and left the room. I had the biggest smile on my face. My kids laughing their butts off! LOVE this print!

Hi, this is likely bed adhesion issues and the blade pieces broke away during the print causing a fused mess of filament where there should be separate blade sections. Try printing with a clean bed and add a bit of adhesive. Check on the print around 50% & 75% before it finishes the blade pieces and see if they are printing nested but clearly separate pieces.

Very nice silly little print- I was looking for something to test curved print-in-place blade and this one was perfect and funny :D. I chose 3-color filament and I can recommend it, since the blade is super cool with it, but remember that there is no way to make the colors match on the top and bottom part -as you can see on the first photo (unless you print the top upside down- which will probably affect the quality).

Looks cool! I bet if you rotated the top piece 180 it would match better

hey it looks like your first layer didnt stick at all for most of the blades.. would recommend you watch at least your first layer or two to improve your print success rate. You'll need to work on your adhesion issues.. Clean your print bed with soap & water OR IPA before each print and add some bambu liquid glue to increase your odds of success!

while the outside of the pickle is printed perfectly without issue, the sword part of the pickle does not properly come out. it seems there is some shifting on the different sword pieces. neither is able to work.

A bit straggly for the first few layers, but didn’t realize you changed the magnet hole sizes… I had already purchased the 6x3mm magnets from when I had made this model before and was great. Now ill have to go purchase new magnets for this one.
