This is a replacement handle for the gestalt gun handle belonging to Jin Bao's Dr Crank (Devastator) combiner. The included handle has a fairly poor design featuring a large "foot" which results in the ring finger being pushed out forward, making for an odd grip.

Based upon the original design, I have created two variants:

  • The standard variant is the same basic size and grip as the original, just without the "foot".
  • The "long" variant is, as the name suggests, longer - long enough that the pinky is required to completely cover it. It also has the locator pins moved such that the gun is held closer to the top of the palm. Note that this variant does restrict wrist rotation while he's still holding the gun.

Both are provided as whole units (such as for SLS printing) or as left/right split units with a pin to join them. Three different sizes of pins are provided, one of which is an exact fit, while the other two are 0.1mm and 0.2mm smaller horizontally, and 0.4mm shorter. Both styles use the same pins.

The left and right sides of the split are mirror images of each other. I've included both simply for convenience.

NB If using a FDM/FFF printer you may need to manually drill the hole out with a 5mm drill bit after printing. While I have sized it slightly over, such small circles often print smaller than intended. If you don't have a metric drills, a 13/64" bit is roughly the same size.

 

Actual resolution is little more than a personal preference. There only points of potential issue are the very small bridges and the tight corners. If you're having trouble with the corners coming up, use a brim.
