Star Trek: Strange New Worlds - Type 2 Phaser (edited)

The Strange New Worlds phaser was my 1st big print and enjoyed watching the parts come together to create a fantastic model. It's ready to go to Sci fi weekender in March.

Love this kit. Running into an issue on the snw-phaser-p2-body-v3-6x2-blue-gray.stl crashes prusa slicer if I try to slice it. Tried importing it into tinkercad to re-save it and see if that could correct, but seeing these artifacts

None of the other stls have given me any issue, and I'm getting great results from them.

Can't stop making this. This is my favorite phaser in all of Trek. Such a lovely homage to the TOS original while being a great update, just like the Enterprise. And a great model; not too difficult to get great results.

Ooops, I thought I had it on stun.

I printed this, all one colour just to try it out before I did any future prints and it has taken a beating. my youngest has ran around with dropping it and it keeps going. Very solid construction.

Fantastic model, as always!!! Here is my version.

Now I've settled into my new printer I attempted another Phaser.

Same as before but a little more TLC and used 3DHOJOR Matte Blue Gray PLA.

Have left the dial off as I'm experimenting with some translucent PETG in Red & Blue to have the Stun Kill setting become interchangeable with magnets.

An amazing print! Printed great. Had some issues but down to new K1 Max. Looks so cool too!

Printed using PLA: Eryone Matte Navy Blue, Elegoo Black, Ziro Silk Silver, Unknown Clear PLA and Eryone Ultra Silk Bronze

Due to issues my my filament and settings it's more "stand off scale", but it is great model!

OK, I got carried away. I purchased 3 colors of blue. I like them all, but the blue-grey seems to be closest to screen used color. A really nice kit that assembles almost by itself. The larger magnets are an improvement. I printed them all with removable power packs.

@MxJns4_2531044 3DHorJo Matte Grey. Looking at it, it looks grey. Printed, it's grey blue and I think looks really close to the screen color. Having said that, I like the really dark blue body color as well, maybe even a little better.

@harlequin132_1663186 thank you! I've got a matte navy by Eryone that's fairly muted which should look good too
