Stormbreaker head and endcap for cosplay prop

thingiverse

This is a remix of AltusUrsus' fantastic Stormbreaker head. I modified it to enlarge it 10%, to add a hole for mounting it on a PVC shaft, and an endcap to cover the other end of a foam-covered PVC shaft. The specific changes: - All parts were enlarged by 10%. It's overall blade-to hammer length is now 39 cm. This is smaller than the movie prop, but accurately sized for a cosplayer of ~ 5' 2". - The blade was sectioned into two pieces. Each was printed, then glued with superglue. - A hole was added to at the bottom of the axe head to snugly insert a 1/2" inner-diameter PVC pipe. These pipes have an outside diameter of 21 mm. - The filigree on the end of the hammer was removed so that the hammer could be printed with the impact face down on the bed, and then the awesome filigreed cap was printed separately and superglued in place - After the PVC pipe was wrapped in insulating foam, I measured the new diameter and modeled a simple end cap in Fusion360. It's unornamented, but it gave the ax the right silhouette and the end.
