Wall-mount Plaque for Kylo Ren Lightsaber by McTough

thingiverse

I designed this wall-mount plaque to showcase the Kylo Ren Lightsaber by McTough, which I printed and painted for my wife for Christmas 2018. I just wanted to share it with the community in case anyone else wanted a nice way to display their saber! It is designed such that it should hold the saber so that it remains perfectly vertical when the plaque is attached to a wall. The "shelves" that hold the saber are thin and delicate as I did not want to detract from the saber itself with large bulky supports. So just be gentle with them. The whole plaque was designed to print without supports, just make sure you orient the pieces accordingly. If you print with supports, the wall-mounting keyholes will likely be plugged up with impossible-to-remove support material. You have been warned! * Plaque Base Pieces - Print facing up (keyholes down, small holes for the shelves up) * Shelf Pieces - Print on their side * Label - Print facing up (if label is desired) The main body is broken into 4 pieces so that it can print on most printers. If you have a larger printer, feel free to combine them yourself into one print. Please please please dry fit your pieces to test them before gluing! The assembly is as follows: * Top Left & Top Right go together to form the "Top Half" * Bottom left & Bottom Right go together to form the "Bottom Half" * Previously assembled "Top Half" and "Bottom Half" go together to form the full plaque * Snap the "Bottom Shelf" onto the right half * Snap the "Hilt Shelf" onto the left half * (Optional) Drill 2 small holes where you'd like to mount the "Label" and use 2 small screws (and/or glue) to attach it to the plaque
