Do you like The Lord of the Rings?

It's literally my favourite saga of all times :D

Here you have the mitical weapon used by the Witch King. The printing is easy and has the following parts:

- Nazgul Flail: Replicated in 3D using the dimensions and shape of the real one, the one you can see in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of The King. Designed with a thread at the top for easy attachment to the chain.

If you can't print the whole flail because it doesn't fit in your printer, don't worry, I've also cut it into different pieces that are very easy to print and assemble together:

- 1_4 middle part: You have to print 4 of these

- top: The top of the flail

- bottom: The bottom of the flail

- kernel: Is the center of the body, used to join together the rest of the pieces. You need to print 2 of these.

- tile: Little tile to join the pieces together. Print as many as you need.

- Chain Print in place: Replicated totally following the movies and designed specifically to be an easy print-in-place design. That means you don't have to worry about supports or post processing, the chain is going to be printed all at once easily and when it's done, the links of the chain will already be connected to each other! You only have to stretch the chain to take it's normal form. In addition to that, it has a screw-shaped link at the ends to fit it into the flail and the handle.

- Handle: Designed to be easily connected to the chain with its thread at the top. If you can't print the whole handle because it doesn't fit in your printer, I also made a handle-by-parts version. Print these files and mount them together:

- Handle_top: The top side of the handle.

- Handle_bottom: The bottom side of the handle.

- Handle_kernel: The center of the body, used to join the top and bottom together.

VERSION 2: This new version is more agressive, sharper and more accurate with the original Nazgul Flail from the movies. The files you have to print are the same as explained before, but switching those who have a V2 in the name: top V2, bottom V2, 1_4 middle part V2. The rest of files have not changed from V1 to V2.
