Thingiverse has a good range of models to print and I decided to try printing Kylo Ren&#8217;s lightsaber &#8211; in total this took me approximately 40 hours which also includes painting. I first primed the lightsaber using Vallejo acrylic primer using a a smal paint brush, which is noticable as you can see brush lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter columns-3
