[New Files and Build!] We built a working Chainsword!
Added 2024-12-14 13:00:08 +0000 UTCThis absolute monster has been added to the permanent Instant Exclusives folder - which means you can get it no matter when you join the Specialist tier!

Assembly tutorial here: https://youtu.be/o5T8H8eObvU
This has been a monumental effort here at Galactic Armory, to design a chainsword that is 3 things: Mostly 3D printable, as simple as we can make it, and of course it has to work!
Included with all the 3d files:
- Mechanized and Static version - in case you want a non-functioning version
- The shopping list for materials and tools you'll need
- Built video and 90 minute in-depth mechanical tutorial
- Rendered assembly video
- Bambu Studio Projects
- Part diagram
Like I said, this has been a huge effort for all of GA. From Sergey creating the initial artistic design, Ron's mechanical designing and testing, Tyler's video production, and of course Jamie's painting and finishing. It really showcases the insane amount of talent we have now and is a glimpse into some of the insane projects we have planned for you all!
Check out the build tutorial on Youtube and share with other Warhammer enthusiasts, it would really help us out!
Hope you all enjoy!

just looked at the .3mf file for the static sword and I wonder why is it made with 6 wall loops?

2024-12-16 21:27:34 +0000 UTCSo cool π₯ Any chance weβll get a file for a fully assembled version?

2024-12-15 17:32:41 +0000 UTCI haven't weighed it but I think it's around 10 lbs

2024-12-14 21:06:45 +0000 UTC1/2"
Aaron Hughes
2024-12-14 21:06:22 +0000 UTCWe did it in PLA but PETG or other high quality machining filament would work well
Aaron Hughes
2024-12-14 21:06:14 +0000 UTCAvailable now in the instant exclusives folder!
Aaron Hughes
2024-12-14 21:05:53 +0000 UTCYes
Aaron Hughes
2024-12-14 21:05:44 +0000 UTCDefinitely tempting!
Aaron Hughes
2024-12-14 21:05:36 +0000 UTCVery cool! A bit above my pay grade though.

2024-12-14 20:27:24 +0000 UTCOk, does this mean we can expect a working GoW Lancer in the future? π
SH Burkart
2024-12-14 19:33:14 +0000 UTCIs there a BOM or list of all the parts needed for the electric version?
Mike Blakeney
2024-12-14 18:56:10 +0000 UTCWhen and where will the files be available for download?
James Edwards
2024-12-14 18:44:41 +0000 UTCWhat is the recommended filament
Marc F
2024-12-14 18:27:14 +0000 UTCWhatβs the size/Diameter of the Dowel rod for the Static?
Andy Cats
2024-12-14 18:21:56 +0000 UTCI was talking about the girth, rather than the length. GA's is much chunkier. And I also agree that $35 is a good price, plus the Alexgeek one will be much cheaper to build, as the components required are cheaper than the ones needed to build the GA one. I love both and each has its own aesthetic.

Aaron Hughes
2024-12-14 17:04:56 +0000 UTCThey're spinning in the correct direction but the camera framerate can make it look like it's going backwards
Aaron Hughes
2024-12-14 17:04:37 +0000 UTCSuper minor nitpick, but the chain is spinning in the wrong direction. The teeth should be digging into whatever you hit with it, not scraping across it. ;)

2024-12-14 16:56:03 +0000 UTCHow's 35 β¬ crazy expensive? I swear, some people have a very skewed perspective on how much work goes into creating such things. For 35 β¬ you get roughly 3 kg of filament so you want him to work for free? π
Choque
2024-12-14 16:51:44 +0000 UTCHow heavy is the motorised version once its all built?
Iain MacDonald
2024-12-14 16:43:52 +0000 UTCI love his work, but his file prices are crazy expensive. Theyβre almost what Iβd expect people to charge for the product and materials π

Matthew House
2024-12-14 16:11:12 +0000 UTCI have his files too, backed the project with the all in pledge on Kickstarter. But human scale? The big version is over 1,30 m. I'm not sure how big the version from GA is, but they look similar in size from the pictures. But I agree with you on the "fits the rest of the Space Marine props" part. Will definitely print this one as soon as I'm done with printing all the parts for my Python AMS π

2024-12-14 16:03:55 +0000 UTCWorking Gears of War chainsaw gun next?
Bryan Freeman
2024-12-14 15:57:15 +0000 UTCYour version is perfect! Definitely fits in with the rest of the Space Marine props that you have designed so far.
Rob Clarke
2024-12-14 15:13:54 +0000 UTCDang son, this is awesome!
Ryan Morrison
2024-12-14 14:48:25 +0000 UTCWe definitely want to iterate and make a smaller version as well!
Aaron Hughes
2024-12-14 14:37:09 +0000 UTCI have his files and his chainsword is much more 'human' scale. GA's version is much more chonky and appears to be a lot more durable.
Rob Clarke
2024-12-14 14:28:16 +0000 UTCI am Sooooooo excited!

2024-12-14 14:07:18 +0000 UTCOoof gonna be an awesome project!

2024-12-14 13:42:23 +0000 UTCI just learned about his page a few minutes ago!
Aaron Hughes
2024-12-14 13:25:30 +0000 UTCAbout 3kgs
Aaron Hughes
2024-12-14 13:24:38 +0000 UTCHave you collaborated with Alexgeekworkshop for this? He built a printable working chainsword and chainaxe (with sound) like a year ago
Choque
2024-12-14 13:17:55 +0000 UTCDo you know how much filament is need to print the functioning model ? Thanks
