Princess Buttercup's Dagger
Added 2025-03-07 01:27:25 +0000 UTCI was not sure how this one would turn out because of how petite the handle is but it really did turn out good. I made it a little taller than is ideal so it would look proportionally correct. You can get both colors with a couple filament swaps at layer heights. There are two caps, one version has a slot so it can be more easily unscrewed. There is both a replaceable blade and a print-in-place version available.
Supports are not required, for best results use a .4mm nozzle. You can print the blades all at once concentrically or one at a time in vase mode. I suggest printing in vase mode but if printing concentrically, the test print can be found here. Find detailed instructions on how to print collapsing swords on my website.

It will depend on your printer and slicer. M600 is the command but depending on your firmware, your printer needs to understand. Its baked into BL, PS, and OS now. You just right click on the slider where you want the change to take place.
