To prepare for 3D printing on my Prusa Mk2S, I opened in F360, broke into components, and made a 12mm blind hole in the pommel, and all the way through the handle - this will take a 3/8" threaded steel rod into the hilt to give it some heft and balance. The blade can barely take a 5mm hole down the center, but that should allow me to run a couple of strands of nylon filament and reinforce with fiberglass mesh tape [melted into the flat surface with a clean soldering iron]. I split the blade and hilt down the middle so that they would lie flat on the bed of the printer, and then cut one half of the blade in 200mm lengths, and the other in 250mm lengths to stagger the seams. The hilt fits the bed perfectly on a diagonal and you can get both halves on at once - or you could print without splitting (and use supports). I was able to print the entire blade in 3 runs. I printed in blue PLA and silver silk PLA for the corresponding parts, and I'm going to assemble this weekend. I looked at several free models and they didn't look as clean and nice as this one, and there would be no telling if the free scabbard model would fit them! I ran simplify on the handle because there was more detail than what the sliced part would show, and with all the cutting things into components, I had to repair the STLs, but those are easy built-in features in PrusaSlicer. I'm considering printing molds from the model, and then casting the blade in urethane, if the nylon/fiber reinforced PLA doesn't come out the way I want.

Awesome model. I printed this as is and I was worried it would break if I held it by the handle so I modified it to screw on to a 1/2 threaded rod from the pommel to the blade. That made it safe to swing around and added some weight. To hold the blade together, I added a channel and ran a cable through it - I added hollow pegs in the channels as connectors that the cable could run through which also made the blade line up perfectly. Printed at .1mm on a bambu carbon. I modeled a sheath for it from scratch available here https://www.printables.com/model/595416-scabbard-for-glamdring-gandalfs-sword

Awesome 3D Model, seller has great communication and also customer assistance.

A great piece. Prints well and the details a good.
