Here are enhancements I made to some parts for the awesome type II phaser by Shipbrook.
V2 Power pack - Due to repeated breaking of the connection prongs, this new one has separated prongs that are printed on their side which gives them far more strength to hold the handle on. There is a v2 for the original hollow and new solid versions.
Trigger spring - Makes it more fun with a nice trigger pull.
Improved release mechanism - Latch piece now attaches to body easier, and the button now effectively releases the top unit by pushing it in. The button prints in two parts and glue together.
Rear fin block - Gave the fins a cutout for aligning them to the block so they could all be glued together first, which was difficult on the original. Makes it easier to attach to the body.
Ten turn knob - Made the top of the knob able to be color-swapped to black and tightened the connections.
Power pack - Simply solidified it and added the end cap as a whole piece. The end plate is still separate.
Nozzle and emitter - The cavity inside the original nozzle gave me hard time with support removal and getting the emitter glued in. This now has a more solid interior and doesn't require supports. The emitter was modified to fit the new nozzle.
Forward clip - Now thicker for easier printing. Use supports and or raft.
Side button - Improved the connection to the peg.
Tips: Use rolled-up tape underneath the release latch (blue tape in photo) to help control the amount of pressure the latch has.
The trigger spring is easy to install. Just glue it in as far left and forward as possible.
Next I'll be working on modding the type I to have a flip up screen mechanism.
Update 2/11/21 Wanted to preserve the ability to have the power pack removable but the connector tabs would just break off after a few times, so I've added a new V2 style with the prongs printed separately sideways. So far its been holding strong with repeated removal.
