Description

This model comes in 4 pieces, the top portion of the saber, bottom, base(lukes house) and the doorway with silhouette of Luke.

 

If printing in multicolor I recommend printing the top and bottom of the saber separately as it saves on filament changes, otherwise they can be printed together in single color.

Saber Settings:

Infill: At Least 25% for strength

Supports: Yes

Ironing: Optional, but can be done.

 

Supports are required, and there is a bit of post processing to remove all the supports from the top portion, but in my testing it came out great.

The top and bottom portions of the saber should look as pictured.

 

Base Settings:

Infill: 15% or less is fine

Supports: Yes

 

Doorway with Silhouette of Luke Settings:

This is a very small piece, so printing with 0.2 nozzle will give greater detail, but isn't necessary.

Ironing: Yes (but not necessary), just makes it look cleaner.

Looks great if printed with multiple colors so Luke stands out more and can be done either with a multicolor system or simply pausing and swapping filament at the required layer heights.

 

Assembly:

Each piece has a peg/hole that should form a fairly snug fit, but I definitely recommend gluing with a bit of superglue to keep everything strong and oriented in the way you prefer. The doorway can be press fit from my testing or can be glued if preferred. The cavity for the candle should fit most regular 10-12" candles, but if using a very large one they can be shaved down a bit to fit.

 

Now just light it and enjoy!
