The file 'Modified Parts For Z18 Warhammer 40k Chainsword 3D Printer Model' is (stl) file type, size is 179.3KB.

Summary

Update - September 11, 2017

Uploaded the following modified pieces:

  • A split version of the main body piece.
  • A split version of the main (shorter) handle.

These changes allow me to print at 100% on my Wanhao Duplicator i3 Plus (200x200x180).

Details

I have modified some of the parts (update: most of the parts, except for the longer handle) for the excellent Z18 Warhammer 40k Chainsword - supportless assembly to fit on my Wanhao Duplicator i3 Plus. I'm printing one of these (at 50%) as a companion to the Primaris Bolt Rifle & Pistol which I recently printed (you can see the print here).

NOTE: I have not modified all of the parts, so you will need to download the other pieces from the original project.

I'm initially printing these at 50% scale, so I don't know if these model files fit, at full scale, yet. I will check and adjust if need be before I'm done. First I'll finish the 50% model.

Modifications

I've split the main-chain.stl into three parts. I've also modified supports.stl to print horizontally. They now have a flat surface on one side, but this should not matter since they go inside the main-chain.stl piece.

Note that even at 50% scale, the supports.stl were too wide (printing horizontally) to fit on my print bed. That was easy enough. With a horizontal orientation, I scaled the Y and Z axis by 50% and the X axis by 25%. If printed twice, you can glue the supports or attach them some other way to create the full-length pieces.

Thanks VERY much to aaskedall for some VERY impressive full-sized models. Looking forward to whatever comes next!
