What we brought
What we can do
Made to be held
The curved sword's grip fits one hand, with a knuckle ring that closes over the fingers.
How we look after you
Full length, printed in sections
The cosplay sword's blade is printed in sections that join into one long sword.
What you get
Threads that really turn
The copper bullet tips screw into their gold casings, so each one opens and closes by hand.

- Bullet props and capsules
- Bullets in three sizes with tips that unscrew, and two capsules with a ring loop
At Additive Inn, our 3D printing studio in Singapore, we 3D print cosplay weapons and props. This page brings together three separate jobs: two swords made to be held, and oversized bullet props with parts that open.
Production
Step 2 of 4
The curved sword was printed in white, holding the fine point of the blade, the ridge along its edge and the flame-like spurs on the guard. The cosplay sword's blade, guard, grip and pommel were printed as separate parts, the blade in sections. Each bullet was printed in two parts, a gold casing and a copper tip with a screw thread at its base, and the capsules in copper and purple with a slot window down the side.
Finishing, painting and joining
Step 3 of 4
The curved sword was left in plain white with no paint, so its shape reads cleanly. The cosplay sword's guard and pommel were painted gold as separate parts, the blade silver with a gold centre line and the grip red, then joined into one full-length sword. The bullet tips screw into their casings, and each capsule's knurled cap is held on by a small screw, with a loop on top for a ring.
The final build
Step 4 of 4
The finished curved sword, turned in hand to show every side: a white blade rising from a sculpted hilt. The other two jobs are shown below.
Curved fantasy sword
A sweep of blade rising to a fine point, a hilt of ridges and flame-like spurs, and a knuckle ring closing over the hand, finished on 30/08/2022.
Cosplay sword
A full-length sword held upright by its red grip: a silver blade with a gold centre line, and a gold guard and pommel. The guard's swept wings, ridges and teardrop opening give it its shape.
Bullet props and capsules
The same bullet in three sizes, gold casings with copper tips and smooth, shiny sides, and two capsules in copper and purple, ready to display or carry. The colour is the plastic itself, with no paint.
