First 2 modular blasters uploaded :)
🕑 Added 2023-08-22 13:21:28 +0000 UTCOK, in the sea of everyone doing the same thing, here is something new :) (and quite difficult) XD
Its the "BUILD YOUR OWN BLASTER" project :)
The idea arrived back when i made the lw896 blaster from jedi survivor
I mentioned i want to make the parts for the blasters in the game so you can 3d print them, and then build your own blaster as you see fit.
Not only build, but change the shapes, grip, barrels in real life just like in the game.
Now the planing and making the universal approach was quite a challenge, but i did make it, so i have built first 2 modular blasters (other will be made down the line). Sorry i didnt make more, but the planning on all of this was insanelly timeconsuming. Unlike the games, there are manny issues and "on the spot" solution i had to invent to make it work :)
Ok, so you 3d print a blaster , and any time you wish to change the design of your blaster, just remove a part and add a new one- like in the game :)
As mentioned there are 2 blasters with 3 parts each - how many possible combos are there ? Imagine how many there will be once we have 12 blasters :)
- ENFORCER
- LW 896
_____
BLASTER PARTS ARE SPLIT INTO 3 CATEGORIES:
TOP
MIDDLE
GRIP
The parts are fixed with 4x4 mm magnets, and the grip have a lock mechanism so it cant be separated by accident, and the top part has also a "hit/tilt" safety designed in,so the part will should not come loose if you hit it by accident
LW 896 - is changed - its a new one - the old design was not compatible with this build, it is also thicker than the old one, so we can archive the old one or call it the "stand alone version"
Lets print some modular blasters :)

jason diodati
Ok will try Again
Marko Makaj
Google soesnt auto refresh, so just hit refresh a few rime and you will see a "BYOB- BUILD YOUR OWN BLASTER" folder - let me know in case it still doesnt appear :)

Marko Makaj
thank you :) i just ordered a new set of magnets, hope they arrive soon :D
Marko Makaj
happy to hear that :) will keep trying my best :)
Marko Makaj
my pleasure :)
Marko Makaj
thank you , and once we have more, it will be quite fun to build blasters in real life :)
Marko Makaj
it is based on jedi survivor, but as i mentioned in the post, in order to make it work, the old blaster is not compatible, the designed had to be changed quite allot , so the old one is just "standalone" version, not interchangable

+1 I love this concept man, love piecing together to make something different
Chris Duffield
I get lots of Star Wars stuff elsewhere but you make the super original ideas!
Chris West
So these are all based on the Jedi survivor blaster that you posted a few months ago? Can I take that file and it will be compatible with what you have here?
Tommy Martin
Love it!
Kreg Weight
