OK so my first foray into the 3d printing world begins with the Samaritan! I love this thing, its so tactile!
I got the original .stl files from the kind folks at Thingieverse.com, The credits are as follows!
Dan0nator who made the original model - http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:71235
Brad72 for the speed loader and bullets - http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:260664
muckychris for the revised handle - http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:241861
Thanks for all the hard work so I could be lazy!
I did make a few tweaks to the original design to try and get it as screen accurate as I could, and I think it prints a bit smaller than the actual version used in the film, but I think it came out ok.
so this is the original print after some clean-up and filler to the corners
SO I jumped a few steps and this is the final painting and weathering (hiding all the lazy mistakes). I added some detail that wasnt in the original like the screw heads and "grippy" section on the cylinder release lever. I also changed the mechanism to be spring loaded which is more in keeping with the movie.
I used a hex bolt and a spring from an old mechanical pencil (after some drilling and filling)
And some "Have a nice Day!" bullets which are not accurate but I liked the idea!
