Guardians of the Galaxy / Star Lord Infinity Orb Electromagnet Display Base V2

thingiverse

This is my second take on the Electromagnet Base after having seen brand-spanking-new screencaps of the Guardians of the Galaxy DVD. I initially thought the 'base' that the orb magnetizes down onto was a solid triangle, but it instead appears to be three prongs pointing inwards. Instructions Print three (3) of the corner piece models, and three (3) of the flaps. Glue the two corner piece assemblies together - they have guide holes so you can put pins into them to make sure you line them up right. Glue the two halves of each flap together facing outward (meaning, the smooth sides go together). The third part of the flap model should snap into place, and can be secured with M2 screws in the two holes modelled - I use 4mm long ones. You will need three lengths of 3mm metal rod - I purchased a bunch off of Amazon for only a couple bucks. Glue the rod into the corner piece, slide the flap hinge over the rod, then cut the rod to the appropriate length and glue the other corner piece on.
