To help being precise assembling the Tool i built in extra connections and connectors aswell. The changes and refinements took around 90 hours only for the 3D model in Fusion 360. To avoid this work step i separated the Multitool into 90 separate pieces. My initial idea was to print the model in one piece and then give it colours and a surface finish with an airbrush.īut as mentioned printing this thing all at once is almost impossible and i personally don’t like airbrushing and all that kind of stuff. So i split up the model and printed 2 and a half models just as tests.ĭepending on the Quality and my own requirements i did a lot of refinements on the 3D model, printed it, change something, printed it, refined it, printed again etc. I was done with the 3D Model of the Multitool in around 10-12 hours but then printing it just like this is not possible or better said very complicated and nerve wrecking. Making an object 3D or additional 3D printable are two very different paths. I’ve learned a lot about CAD and creating 3D models. To be able to 3D print it i needed to make this model first 3 Dimensional and for that i used the few pictures i found of the tool in the web. Since i started with 3D printing and CAD a few months ago i could finally make my own models, replicas and what else than this Multitool from Star Citizen. The look of it intrigued me and i loved it. When i first stumbled up on Star Citizen years ago i saw a picture of the Multitool.
