Hexana

3D printed katana inspired by Cyberpunk 2077.

Print instructions:

def print_blade():
	layer_height=0.15 #I don't recommend using bigger layer height for printing the 					  blade, because the sharp side could mess up
	infill=20% #I used 20% infill, you can choose different but i wouldn't go under 15%
	filament=PLA #You can choose different, I used Prusament PLA Galaxy Silver
	supports="supports_on_build_plate_only"
	print(Blade_1.stl, Blade_2.stl, Blade_3.stl, Blade_4.stl, Blade_5.stl) #or slice the Blade-not_sliced.stl for the size of your printbed
def print_handle():
	layer_height=0.15 #The handle should be printed ok with different layer heights too
	infill=30% #I used 30% infill, you can choose different but i wouldn't go under 15%
	filament=PETG #I used PETG only because of the colours. It should be ok even with PLA or different filament.
	supports=everywhere #because of the socket for blade and hexagonal pattern
	print(Handle_1.stl, Handle_2.stl) #or slice the Handle-not_sliced.stl for the size of your printbed
def postprinting():
	glue_blade("glue the blade pieces together using epoxy") #you can also add metal rod into the hole in the middle of the blade
	glue_handle("glue the handle pieces together using epoxy") #you can also add metal rod into the hole in the middle of the handle
	screw_the_katana("use 6 M3 bolts and nuts to connect the blade and handle")
