Holders for my star wars models consisting of a peg, a pin and a base.
The peg is a small, hollow cylider to hold the pin. It is added to the model as part of the print. (It will be fused to the model)
The pin connects the model to the base. You dont need a pin and you can stack multiple pins to get your desired height.
There are three versions for the peg and pin.
This is for regular models. Anything that is not much bigger then a starfighter and has something in the middle for the peg to connect to. These models are:
This is for models where the peg is set towards the back. The first pin is slanted to correct for this offset. This can happen if there is a gap in the middle where there is nothing for the peg to connect to.
This is for bigger models.
There are three versions for the base.
This is compatible with the small and slanted pins.
Compatible with small and slanted pins, just like the small base. I recommend using it when the small base does not provide enough stability. This can be the case when using lots of pins or with the U-Wing and Star Commuter shuttle.
Compatible with the big pin.
The peg is printed as a part of the model. In PrusaSlicer, you can add it to the main model via right-click → add part → load. The peg should appear at the correct location. You might have to paint some support-blockers inside it.
I use PLA at 0.2mm layer height for the bases, but you can use pretty much any material and setting for them.
For the pins, you can use PLA, but I would recommend PETG because its slightly more flexible and durable. Use a raft and supports on buildplate only.
