HTC Vive - Katana double sided grip (for Beat Saber)

thingiverse

This is a remix of PanFX "HTC Vive Controller Sword Handle for Katana X", to adapt 2 opposite handle adapters, Darth Maul style in order to play Beat Saber ! Printed this piece with a 1.2mm wall thickness to ensure its rigidity given the length of the handle (~265mm). I used the handle adapter and pin provided by PanFX : https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2391653 Edit : the handle adapter must be printed with at least 1.2mm walls and 30% infill. Printed mine with 0.8mm walls and 20% infill and just broke exactly where the holes to insert the pin holders are, the hole creating a weak spot (with regards to filament deposit orientation since I printed the object vertically) and the pin holder adding tension at this particular spot. I coated the printed and assemble parts with epoxy resin in order to fuse the 3 parts together and to add some grip to the... grip, even with sweaty hands. Yeah, epoxy is awesome for that purpose :)
