Kirito's Sword the Elucidator

thingiverse

I made this for a local engineering contest last weekend. I don't have make of it currently because I broke the one I made (by swinging it to hard of course..) I had originally planned to make the drawings the exact right size to the actual one but I noticed my measurements are a little bit off. I'll work on that. For now if scale the parts up to 1.1 size it is very close to the actual sword. I know people have their different artistic interpretations of this sword so please don't criticize me for the way I designed this one. If you would like to remix it to fit your interpretation feel free to. Keep in mind this first upload of this was created in about 4 hours with research on sword sizes included. I know it isn't perfect. If I get any good feedback on this version I will go back and make a more refined one to upload later. Note: I have lost the flash drive that all the original .SLDPRT files are on and I only have the emailed .STL files recovered. When I opened these files they sometimes didn't have the right units. You can use conversion factors to scale it to the right size in your printing software. If you have and specific questions or need any help with this email me at: bananagangstersofawesomeness@gmail.com I do not own the original design that this sword was inspired from UPDATE: May 7th: Both of the sides of the sword are correct as is, but "Handle", "Blade Bottom", and "Blade Top" need to be scaled to 25.4 size to be correct. (Thats just the conversion from inches to mm). If anyone knows how to fix the units directly from the .STL please comment or email me. Largest Piece About 495mm x 77mm x 6mm (19.5in x 3.1in x .24in) Handle Scale: 25.4 Side_of_sword Scale: 1 Side_of_sword2 Scale: 1 BladeBottom Scale: 25.4 BladeTop Scale: 25.4 Printing this any smaller than full size is not exacly ideal because the blade at full size is only around 6mm thick. Any smaller and it barely holds itself together. Sorry for the inconvenience. Instructions The parts are pretty simple to put together and require just a bit of glue. The part where the 2 pieces of the blade connect is very very week due to the fact that it is the actual thickness of a blade but not made out of metal.
