Vibro Axe Questions
« on: Feb 04, 2024, 09:16 AM »
Hi all,

I'm trying to navigate the forums to see if there is a list of approved Vibro Axe STLs out there. I found a few (see below) but want to make sure they are approvable before starting a new projec

I don't believe such a list exists. There are new files created daily and keeping up with them would require a far larger group.

The axe looks good to me, the fun part is getting rid of the print lines!

Before you start printing it, since an axe is a relatively simple shape I'd instead recommend making it out of a different material like wood or sintra and add greenlies instead. You'd also have to do a lot less sanding and filling.

I'm with Arminius.  A 3d printed axe is almost certainly going to break as it gets bumped and knocked around through its normal handling and transport.  Sintra would be sturdier, and lighter.

Oh snap! I never realized the Knight of Ren vibro axe was canon to be of Mandalorian design. That's awesome!

As others have said, it would honestly be easiest to make the blade yourself BUT! If you are more skilled with 3D printing that making things by hand, obviously that works well too.

Below are some vibro axe designs I've come up with and ones I've made. The small hand axes, the blades are just 1 piece of 3mm sintra. The Mandalore the Ultimate inspired axe was certainly a lot more complicated to make ha

Handle was just PVC, a gutted light saber, and other do-dads
