    By: Mr. Gravitt
    BUILDING A MULTI
    COMPONENT MACHINE!
    • You don’t have to make a lightsaber,
    if you have something else you
    would like to make, ask the
    instructor for permission, & get my
    approval first.
    • If you are unsure &/or you would like
    to make a lightsaber, then follow the
    directions.
    BUILDING A MULTI
    COMPONENT MACHINE!
    • #1 thing that kiddos from the past
    have made is Lightsabers.
    • #2 most popular thing has been
    Companion Cubes?
    • #3 Thor’s Hammer

    Step 4
    • Now Mr. Gravitt
    made all the different
    parts as separate
    files, but you can
    have them all in 1 if
    you would like to.
    OnShape allows this
    while many other
    CAD software's do
    not let you do this.
    NOTES:
    • There are a bunch of ways to attach
    the different components together!
    • Components will need to have gaps,
    0.10, 0.20, 0.30 inches &/or etcetera
    or you will not be able to assemble
    you machine!
    • Plastic printed parts are going to
    shrink on you!!! The larger the part
    the more the part will shrink…
    There are MANY ways of
    • Assembling the different parts:
    1.Clips
    2.Pins
    3.Screws
    4.Nuts & Bolts
    5.Glues
    6.Press Fit /
    7.Slots
    8.&/or etc.
    NOTES:
    • Here’s me designing a couple
    different lightsaber’s.
    • Started designing one from the Hilt
    End & started designing the other
    from the emitter end. You can do
    either way?
    1.Luke’s Lightsaber
    2.Yoda’s Lightsaber
    Step 5 – I’ve choose to use nuts & bolts
    • By using LARGE HEAVY METAL NUTS &
    BOLTS, so I can add some weight to it!
    Should be easy to assemble & disassemble!
    Step 6 – Different Materials
    • I’m using Black TPU handle grips
    • I’m using several different color plastics:
    • Metallic Gold PLA
    • Metallic Silver PLA
    Step 7 – Different Materials
    • I found some large Bolts & Nuts out in
    the shop, then made drawings of them,
    to use in my lightsaber.
    Step 8 – TPU
    • I just planned for the TPU to fit well into
    the PLA handle & then also use some
    rubber cement to help hold them in
    place.
    Step 9
    • Designed it so that the BOLT can go in
    here. Pause the printer, drop the bolt
    into the print, then hit resume printing &
    it will print the rest of the part right over
    top of the bolt head!
    Step 10
    • Designed it so that the NUT can go in
    here. Pause the printer, drop the nut
    into the print, then hit resume printing &
    it will print the rest of the part right over
    top of the nut head! Will do this AGAIN
    with a bolt in the other end.
    Step 11
    • Designed it so that the NUT can go in
    here. Pause the printer, drop the nut
    into the print, then hit resume printing &
    it will print the rest of the part right over
    top of the nut head! Will do this AGAIN
    with a bolt in the other end.
    Step 12 – TPU
    • I just planned for the TPU to fit well into
    the PLA handle & then also use some
    rubber cement to help hold them in
    place. Print it 4 times.
    Step 13
    • Designed it so that the BOLT can go in
    here. Pause the printer, drop the bolt
    into the print, then hit resume printing &
    it will print the rest of the part right over
    top of the bolt head!
    Step 14
    • Designed it so that the NUT can go in
    here. Pause the printer, drop the nut
    into the print, then hit resume printing &
    it will print the rest of the part right over
    top of the nut head! Will do this AGAIN
    with a bolt in the other end. NOTE: This
    part is obviously not finished…
    Step 15
    • Hilt, Bolt, Nut, & Center Sections
    assembled.
    Step 16.1
    • Emitter, Cooling Fins, Mid Section, &
    Handle Grips Assembled
    Step 16.2
    • Emitter, Cooling Fins, Mid Section, &
    Handle Grips Assembled
    Stopped Here
