Viking Sword

Post by jereywolf » Wed Apr 22, 2015 3:10 am

This is modeled after Lagertha Lothbrok's sword from the series "Vikings". These are the raw prints, but I'm so excited about this build that I wanted to share these WIP photos.
All printed with Esun PETG.

What are you using to join the segments on a long piece like that? I imagine the joins would take a beating if that were swung at any velocity and the tip managed to contact something.

You're absolutely right. I have the entire length supported with two Ø3/16 steel rods. Even with those I advise against hitting anything with it.

Thank you! I've spent a lot of hours in modeling software.
