This is a toy utility torch for children to play with.

When my child turned three, she was gifted a toy tool chest complete with plastic nails, nuts, bolts, tiny wood planks, a claw hammer, wrench, and a flat head screwdriver. Despite the presence of a flat heat screwdriver, which is universally acknowledged to be the worst type of screwdriver, my child was pleased with this assortment. I, however, was mortified to discover that not one of these tools had the ability to heat objects to temperatures in excess of 3,000 degrees (the wrench barley reached 80 degrees and the flathead screwdriver made things colder). Unwilling to allow my child to dwell in the shadow of flameless neglect, I set about to address this terrible oversight. Thus was born Mr Fire Wand.

Much like the magical fairy stick that inspired part of its name, Mr. Fire Wand can transform any object into an imaginary blazing inferno with the flick of a wrist. No longer must my child or her toys suffer the indignity of repairing cars, trucks, boats, space ships, houses, birds, or letters of the alphabet, using primitive, non-pyrotechnic, simple tools.

Always concerned about safety when using imaginary incendiary devices, I included a working push button on Mr. Fire Wand’s head as well as a working adjustment knob that can be used to imagine more, or less, fire spewing out the nozzle.

Finally, after hours of playful use, you, or your child, may find the volume of imaginary flames begin to drop, signaling Mr. Fire Wand’s body is running low on fuel. When this happens, simply rotate Mr. Fire Wand’s head until it separates from his body, discard the useless empty shell, and then twist his head down onto a new, full canister of magic fire gas.

Please note: Mr. Fire Wand is a toy and can not actually produce fire. If you find that your Mr Fire Wand is producing an actual flame of any size, please discontinue use immediately as something has gone terribly wrong.

Please PLEASE note: I’ve done my best to make this toy rugged and safe but you should always supervise your child when they play with 3d printed toys such as this one.

How to Assemble:

1. Insert the button into the body. The retaining hook of the spring should face toward the body. Press firmly to snap into place. 

   

2. Press the Knob onto the body. This may require a little force. Then press the Pipe down onto the Body (It should only fit in one direction). This may also take some force. Depending on your printer and the filament, you may or may not need a dab of glue to hold it in place.
