Collapsing Zanpakuto Replaceable Blade Version

This version of the katana has a cap that can be removed by squeezing the sides so the blades can be printed separately then inserted or replaced. The wrap prints on the hilt on this version instead of being printed separately so no glue is required.

Supports are not required, 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 on my website.

I got the extra color with manual filament swaps. The chain is a little hard to print, make sure you use a brim. I also had to print a little slower at a lower layer height to keep it from getting knocked over.

Printed on the Mulcore rep-rap IDEX printer.
