i wanted for a commando cosplay that i put together a highly detailed wrist computer. first i wrote a little story in my had of what would be handy to have in the wrist-computer. then i made a list of stuff that would have to go in the computer to mimic those features. (phone as a working screen, old mouse buttons for clicking sounds, a USB cable to hack computers.) after the list i started drawing the computer with solidworks to tinker with places where everything had to go and how i got my phone and harm in and out of the computer. eventually it became a 3 part system that would stay together by screws. then i printed it and the result looked amazing and it really did put some story to my cosplay.

This my 3D printed version of the pool party graves gun from league of legends. A friend asked me to make it for his cosplay. After two months of drawing it over from internet pictures for references. I printed it in 6 weeks but assembly took me because of sanding and school another 3 months. After drawing the big gun in one piece I drew over the drawing to cut out every single piece and added ways to put the gun back together. From the tip of the barrel to the beginning of the shoulder stock is almost everything screwed together except the outer parts who are reinforced with plastic rods glued on the inside. The water tanks are clear pvc pipes painted blue from the inside.
The guns weights around 5 to 6 kilo`s and it is 1.2 meters long and 30 cm wide. This thing was a big journey with loads of accidents and lessons learned through the hard way. A couple of these lessons are:
A friend of me asked me if i could 3D print the gun from a league of legends champion. there where no stl drawings so i took the challenge to to it myself. After a few months of drawing i have finally completed the drawing and i am so proud of my self. but now comes the real challenge of printing it because it has to be 1:1 and this thing is longer than a meter.
with solidworks i have drawn a wheel from the conveyor belts from my work. With this wheel i want to experiment if a 3D printed ABS wheel is able to do the work just as well as the original. For this experiment i will look at the wear and tear on the wheels and the rubber bands who are on the wheels. I will also look at at the rate this wheel is able to run. The printed wheel on this image is from PLA so i will not use it for my experiment because PLA is not rigid enough to do the work. This wheel was only printed in PLA to test the design.
