3D printing instructions: Auction Hammer, Gavel including Resonance Block

Introduction: These instructions describe the 3D printing of an auction hammer, which can also be used as a gavel and resonance block. It is ideal for role-playing games, auctions, at the podium, or as a fish stunner for small fish.

Materials and print settings:

• Use PLA or another suitable filament. For additional stability, a carbon fiber filament is recommended.
• A 0.4mm nozzle is recommended.
• Use variable layer heights to achieve smooth curves.

Printing the Auction Hammer:

File preparation:

• The hammer is split in half to ensure better stability during printing.
• The resonance block can be printed in one piece.

Print settings:

• Adjust the print speed and temperature according to the filament used.
• Use support structures if necessary to support overhangs.

Printing the Hammer:

• Print both halves of the hammer.
• Print the resonance block in one piece.

Post-processing:

Assembly of the Hammer:

• Glue the two halves of the hammer together with super glue. Ensure that the parts are precisely aligned.
• Allow the glue to dry completely before using the hammer.

Finishing:

• Sand any rough edges or uneven surfaces to achieve a smooth finish.
• Optional: Paint the hammer and resonance block for a professional finish.

Usage:

• Auctions and Role-Playing: Ideal for use in auctions or role-playing games.
• Podium: Can be used as a symbol of authority.
• Fish Stunner: Suitable for small fish due to its robust construction.

Care and maintenance:

• Keep the hammer and resonance block clean and dry.
• Avoid excessive force to prevent damage.
• Repaint or repair as needed.

Summary: The 3D printed auction hammer with resonance block is versatile and easy to make. By using super glue to join the hammer halves, high stability is achieved. For maximum robustness, a carbon fiber filament is ideal.
