Sadly these days most people think a classic ray-gun looks like Han Solo's Mauser or a Stormtrooper's sub-machinegun. But us older folk remember the days before Leslie Nielson was funny and props were designed, not just cobbled together from found objects. Forbidden Planet? Isn't that a comic-shop in London? So: this is still a thing 'in progress', but I was keen to get it out there while there are still people alive who remember the film. The handle still isn't quite right because I just can't get Solidworks to do the slightly flattened bit on the back at the bottom; and there's a glitch in the .stl for the rear cap - one side of the three-pointed star detail is actually not solid, so may print strangely, but cleans up easily. Eventually I'll get around to tidying things up, but eventually I'll get around to a lot of things... The body is hollow so there's plenty of room to fit your lighting system of choice. (Or if you're in Australia, you can try finding the same torch I did. Big W had them but I can't find the same design any more) I also highly recommend the remix by RobotHut: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4573606 and his video. Of course filament printers still can't do clear parts clear, but if you want to be serious, you can always polish up the printed barrel bits and use them to make silicone moulds for casting in clear resin. Or you could use a resin printer of course.
