Description

This customizable collapsible lightsaber is the fourth collection of many different designs that I wanted to create.

 

I am just getting into the 3D design space and trying new things with my 3D printer, and these lightsabers have been the result of my tinkering.

 

The sections screw together and meant to be interchangeable with all the parts in this collection.  (This is part 4.) 

 

This version includes an enclosure for a flashlight to make a translucent blade glow!

 

It is designed around this flashlight (non-affiliate link):

(5/24/2024) Updated Pen Light Enclosure!

This new light enclosure is much bigger because it can hold a much larger flashlight!  

(Non-affiliate link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09GCLPW83 )

 

The new end cap splits in two.  The flashlight is held in by a slight edge.  The two pieces are then held together by the ring on the end and by handle of the lightsaber it is attached to.  The button switch of the light sticks out the bottom.

Remember that the updated end cap is only as cool as the flashlight you put in it. If you want it to really light up than it’s going to be 20-40 bucks depending on the flashlight you pick that fits. Love this model! Printed parts from all 4 lightsabers and brought them into the office. Now my team is making their own office lightsaber for battles!

I am working on an endcap that can hold a pen light! Once I have it tested and finalized, I will update this design.

Replying to @t.schafer :
You can get small ones. There are cat lights that are 2/$10. But you will only notice them in darkness. Below is a little lightsaber kit that fits right in. Some trimming required to access the switch, but not much. DAMIENSABER Upgrade RGB3.0 16... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CB12YM3Z?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

I can’t explain how much fun I’ve had with this and I played with it for so long and so hard I’ve only had it for 3 weeks and I’ve broken 3 already

I know, right! I have lost count of how many my kids and I have broken. They are SO much fun! I have been looking at ways to make them stronger. I have learned that the metallic-silk filaments that I love are also brittle... so I have been trying other tougher filaments. I am also looking at create a new version that is a little bit bigger in an attempt to have stronger walls.

I really like these models, but the blade needs to be scaled up to about 102% in order to work with all of the available options.
