The Key To Hamunaptra 3d files?
- Thread starter MTB
- Start date
I plan to offer a kit from Shapeways. I'm just ironing out the last details of the locking mechanism.
It'll be a fully functional key kit, once you get the key from Shapeways and the spring kit from me.
I'm not aware of anyone other than myself that's created a 3D file of it.

Okay.
The plan is to have the entire key 3D printable including the locking mechanism. The only thing you'll need to add is the springs to flip open the flaps.

Are you planning on having the locking mechanism work exactly how it did in the film? If so I'd love to hear how you plan on implementing it. I once toyed around with some personal theories with how they must have done it but I never found anything I liked.
This is my own design, to the max. I had to really dumb it down to make it 3D printable. So, the mechanism may not be as SMOOTH as Jaded Monk's design, but his design was very complex. I wanted this to be a design that anyone with a little dexterity could assemble themselves.
The key will be in 2 printed pieces (top and bottom) that will link together and the bottom will rotate to unlock the Master flap. The Master flap holds all the other flaps closed, so when it is released, all the flaps open. You close all the flaps and then rotate the bottom to it's original position to move the lock back into place and hold the flaps closed.
So, in a word, YES. :lol
I've been working on versions of this since Oct 2014. I have my own thread, which I'll update when I get a working copy.

Theirs someone on etsy selling mummy keys and books
All of the keys I've seen on Etsy are non-moving and non-functional. Just a static prop.
