Calling all Marvel fans and 3D printing enthusiasts! This is a highly detailed 1:1 scale replica of Tony Starkβs iconic MK-II Arc Reactor from the Iron Man movies β carefully designed with functionality, ease of printing, and an epic final look in mind.
This project is composed of 50+ individual parts, no glue required, and fully assembled using M2 screws. It's been engineered with precise tolerances so everything fits together seamlessly right off the printer.
β No glue required β Everything is assembled with M2 screws, making it solid, easy to disassemble, and clean to build.
π¨ Single-color printer friendly β Each part is split by color in the STL files, so you can print everything separately and still get an awesome multi-color final result with any regular printer.
π‘ LED-ready design β The Arc Reactor is hollowed and designed to include internal lighting. Iβve added the Amazon link to the same lights I used.
π§© Designed for perfect fit β Tolerances are already applied for smooth assembly.
π₯ Full build video available on YouTube β Iβve documented the full process, from modeling to assembly, in case you need help or want to see how everything comes together.
