Here is a second tap handle featuring the dragon and tower from the original http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1010252
In this one the top of the tower is crumbling, and the dragon is trying to stabilize the shield so it doesn't fall.
The tap handle measures just shy of 7" tall, 3" wide, and 2.5" deep. I found it to be much easier to print in 2 parts, cut in half just below the shield.
Like the original tap handle, this uses brass threaded fittings which can be found here http://www.amazon.com/E-Z-Threaded-Insert-Internal-Threads/dp/B0026GZU0Q/ref=pd_bia_nav_t_3?ie=UTF8&refRID=1N5V76Q1G5MT4JBV9DSY
Printed in 2 parts, the bottom piece prints easier if turned upside-down, but will still need a little support for the dragon's body. The top piece was printed with full support (generated from meshmixer)
I printed in ABS and used an ABS+acetone slurry to glue parts together, touch up the print afterwards, and soften up the threading region to accept the brass fitting.
