**Qui-Gon's Collapsing Lightsaber**
_Single Extruder Multi-Part Version_

This version of the lightsaber has been broken into different parts so they can be printed separately in different colors then glued together. There are locators for all the parts. The cap is screwed on so the blades can be printed separately then inserted or replaced. 

The silver shield requires supports. I painted tree supports on the ends of the two overhangs. For best results use a .4mm nozzle. You can print the blades all at once concentrically or one at a time in vase mode. Find detailed instructions on [how to print collapsing swords](https://www.dddprintingworld.com/pages/printing-collapsible-lightsabers-and-swords) on my website. 

I used [Gorilla Glue]( https://amzn.to/48UNQQH) (aff.) to glue mine together.

Printed on the [Mudex]( https://github.com/3dprintingworld/MULDEX) rep-rap IDEX printer. with [Polymaker Metallic Pro PLA](https://us.polymaker.com/products/polylite-metallic-pla-pro)
