Princess in Black Scepter/Staff

thingiverse

Send monsters back to monster land before they can eat any goats with the Princess in Black's Staff! I designed this collapsable scepter/staff for my daughter so that she could pretend to be the main character from one of her favorite book series, Princess in Black. She has broken the top part twice now, once by hitting it too hard into the ground and once by stepping on it. So, I probably should have made it thicker and sturdier, but it's easy enough to glue back together. The design is heavily inspired by the various collapsing swords on Thingiverse. The middle sections are meant to be printed in vase mode. I used a .8mm nozzle, and they came out plenty sturdy enough. Print out all five parts, slide the middle parts inside each other, glue the outermost middle section to the bottom and the innermost middle section to the top. I found it dries well upside down.
