By my measurements the barrel is 1.25" and i feel pretty confident about it.

I agree. I did 1.5 because it was convenient and proportionally, it's perfect for my hands, but clearly too big for Rey's hands.

With regard to the centre section I saw this the other day and immediately thought it would be a good base for Rey's Blaster. What does everyone else think? The plates at either end look spot on and space inside for electronics and it would be easy to bolt the handle and barrel sections on. I'm definitely getting one or one like it for my cheap build I'm just not sure if it's the right size...

So this is a thing... They sure screwed that one up.

@vader1974 Brian what pieces did you use from each model? I printed the lilykill model the other night, and I'm about to reprint using stainless steel PLA, so I might alter a few things before doing so

That's gorgeous. I just painted my ABS version with Duplicolor chrome but can't get it to take a clearcoat without dulling to gray. Looking forward to your polishing results.Alright, here's my print in Proto Pasta Stainless Steel PLA. Printed on a Taz 5 at .1mm
The main body has been sanded a little to bring out some shine, and all the other pieces are straight from the printer. This stuff looks fantastic right off the bed as far as print lines go. Once I get everything sanded and polished I'll report back on how well it takes to shining.
Denix grips just for the look. I'll be printing the actual grips in some wood filament

You can see a slight shine on the body just from sanding, so I'm hoping steel wool and polishing compound will bring out the rest
