Kaihanga777 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 (edited) Yes indeed! Go check it out at the link below: https://www.shapeways.com/product/GR7B3JZEZ/fire-guard-staff-compatible-with-lego-bionicle?li=search-results-1&optionId=57661828 I've always wanted to create a Bionicle 3D printable, so I thought this would be an easy beginners model to start with. Enjoy! Update: I modified the prongs by making them taper at the end. I think it looks a lot better this way!

Rahkshi Lalonde Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Hm, i personally would have made it taper towards the end, which is what i recall the staff looking like, idk. but for what it is, and given tapering 3D models = more effort, i feel this works. o: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ontocron Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Great idea! There's not much to say due to the simple design, other than it looks just like it did in the MNOLG!The only suggestion I have is to perhaps make the large cylinder more hollow and the prongs thinner, just to reduce the material cost. Also, have you tested the axle to see if it works with Bionicle pieces? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crunchyn Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 It might be better costwise to remove/shorten the axle drastically so that we can use our own axles with the piece. You can still upload an image that has it axle'd on Shapeways so people can get an idea of how it looks. Quote "I could have been a Protector but then I took a stud to the feet."

TuragaNuva Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Really well done! I agree with Crunchyn, though: it'd be cheaper and more convenient if there were an option to use our own axle(s). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaihanga777 Posted September 3, 2015 Author Share Posted September 3, 2015 Your wish has been granted! https://www.shapeways.com/product/K669MXSVH/fire-staff-spearhead?key=d9070672e75d5fb8b65e9202207317aa&optionId=57767364 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
