As King of Asgard<\/a>, protector of the\u00a0Nine Realms<\/a>, father of\u00a0Hela, <\/a>Thor<\/a>, and Loki<\/a>,and husband of Frigga<\/a>, Odin carries aloft Gungnir the symbol of his authority.<\/p>\n

Forged in the metal from the heart of a dying star Gungnir<\/a> is his mightiest weapon. Odin can also wield Thor’s hammer<\/a>, Mj\u00f8lnir.<\/p>\n

So a big shout out to juanmol from Thingiverse<\/a> for the 3D model.\u00a0Conveniently sliced into 14 sections, with two holes through every part, the 3D print was floorless.<\/p>\n

I originally tried 5mm doweling but found this to be too sloppy as a fit allowed flex during the initial mock-ups. I didn’t want to introduce flex as this would add pressure to the joins.<\/p>\n

I settled on two 6.2mm fibre glass rods for stability but did have to do a bit of sanding to get them to slide into place easily.<\/p>\n

6mm holes do not allow 6.2mm rods to slide in – obvious aye!<\/p>\n

I used a two part superglue just to give me a few seconds of slide when joining the parts. Slop in the shaft from my eager sanding was addressed by introducing some lightweight filler.<\/p>\n
