Do you have a set of ODST armor that currently lacks storage space? Maybe you want to take the realism up a notch from your EVA foamback! Maybe you have been 3D printing for a while, and get great satisfaction from multipart prints!
Included are:
-All the STL files are required to print the Backpack parts.
-Combined STL files to allow easy scaling of multipart objects
-The templates for critical soft parts (Inside of the thighs, Spine, etc)
-A PDF booklet breaking down assembly and the hardware required.
This project was originally undertaken for my personal ODST in order to maximize the storage space available to me. It’s designed to be practical and strong, and Super useful for all those things you want to carry around a convention!
Features of these files include:
– Structural parts that lock together mechanically rather than with glue. (details Will require glue)
– Opening boxes with doors that connect with hinges and screws.
– Magnet points for magnet locking doors.
Hardware wise for this build I used:
6 1” x 1¾” Hinges.
24 M4 Screws (The shortest I could find) Mine were 8mm I believe.
2 15 mm wood screws
8 3x8mm neodymium magnets
4 mall sections of 8mm dowel that I shaved down to fit 8m and 6mm holes.
Because of the size of the Files, the instant download on Etsy will provide a PDF with a link to a google drive folder. If you submit an application for access, I will be able to see and approve it within the day. (usually within a few hours, unless I am sleeping)
The google drive folder will have everything you need inside.
If you have any issues with this system, feel free to send me an Email.
A few disclaimers.
– Custom supports can be really helpful when printing some of the parts (especially the side boxes)
– The backpack is sealed to a person about 180cm tall. within a few cm, not much scaling will be required, but if you are significantly taller/smaller, be prepared to do some scaling.
– These files were designed for my Artillery sidewinder 3D printer, with a bed size of 30x30x40. Most of the parts will still fit on a smaller printer, but some will need to be sliced smaller using a program like meshmixer.
– The way you connect this backpack to your armour parts is not set in stone. You can copy my methods seen in the booklet, or you can come up with new and improved ways. It’s up to you!
– Because I am based in New Zealand, the hardware I used may not be exactly the same as your local area. be prepared to do some modifications or problem solving if you can’t access the same stuff 🙂
Happy Crafting!
