Description

This is the Stormbreaker axe from Infinity Wars. It's big: about 75cm (2 ½ feet) by about 50cm (1 ½ feet) and it feels heavy. This prints really, really well (the writing on the axe and hammer come out really well) and the supports (on the top of the handle) just snap off and can be removed reasonably easily.

I've made several modifications to make this print and assemble easily (and to improve model strength):

there is space to put (12mm) wooden or metal dowling through he center of he model. This helps with strength
the hammer has been split into two pieces. This makes it easier to print and leads to better prints, especially for the hammer pattern
The handle has been broken into pieces so that it fits on the build plate :-)
The hammer clicks into place. No glue necessary

I had a little trouble with the sizing for the internal support rods with there being a 5mm gap no matter which way I put them in. I worked with the designer for this and we got it situated quickly. For me, it was just simply reprinting the shortest one 5mm shorter without messing with the other dimensions. I did have to do a bit of sanding to get the blade pieces where they needed to be securely, but the did go and it looks great. I know I would not have had to glue them or anything, but I have whacky boxer dogs, and would rather not take chances, so I used some CCDIY Turbo 2 part epoxy so I know it's solidly put together. Our house is done like a giant comic book, so this is one of the last pieces we needed. I have to figure out wall mount brackets to support it on an angle now, as I think it is going above one of the doorways. My photo shows it on my kitchen counter. Those tiles are 18" for size reference. All in all, I'm 4.5 stars happy with this, and 5 stars happy with the designer.

@13thetigger13

Also, I used Bambu brand silver silk for the blade and IIIDMax Copper PLA Plus for the handle. I used Bambu stock settings for both, as that has worked for me every time since day one with this P1S Printer.

Definitely like it only thing I noticed is I might have to change the infill design to make it stronger I accidentally broke it trying to push the face on to the tabs heard cracking inside the model.

Strength Issue:Infill is to weak. While try to connect the upper Parts everything breaks down

Other Issues:The Size of the stick and holes to connect dosent fit the other parts. first i thought ist because of the printer or maybe the PLA but it was defenetly the Modell. Also the Connectors make the Tree upsidedown. i just notice it to late and try to fin a solution... It looks that this model is skaled from a much smaler model of the Axe.

@Kabuki

on build plate one. what are the two small pieces for? they did not print when I printed this

The designer has replied

@emp3thy

Are these the pieces on the hammer build plate? those are pegs to help him the hammer face to the rest of the hammer.

@Kabuki

Replying to @emp3thy :

yes that's what it is. I'll just have to slice it with just those two as they would not print with the hammer pieces.

@Sascha2202

Hello, which dark brown was used in the first photo? looks great

The designer has replied

@emp3thy

That's paint, rather than raw filament. My process for this print is: - print - join together the handle with pegs and glue - fill the gaps (there are always gaps) between the handle joins with wood filler - paint. Usually applying a dark brown or black as a base coat and then air-brushing on a lighter brown on top. Finally, use a sponge brush to apply watery black paint, which gets wiped off. This gives it the weathered/used look. I've attached a photo of one I'm currently working on:

@A3DCprinting

with this file, you either have to assemble it incorrectly for the runes, or modify the top part of the handle to go how it should. would recommend a fix.

The designer has replied

@emp3thy

I see what you mean. Modifying the CAD file to change the hammer. Will need to print to test before I release. Should have this fixed By Tuesday/Wednesday.

@Needhamm

what are the yellow objects in the file for? im new, just trying to learn.

The designer has replied

@emp3thy

They yellow objects are Modifiers (select a model, right-click and add modifier). You use a modifier to selectively change a printing property for everything that is "inside" the modifier. For the axe and hammer join I use a modifier to increase the number of walls and the infill percentage to increase the strength of the part on the join. I use it on the hammer tree design to say "only iron the very top bit of the design" rather than all flat bits of a model. Does that make sense?
