1:1 MG42 Replica made by RuskiWafl#1042 and Kaleknikker#8627

WARNING PLEASE READ FILE INSIDE ZIP

There was a lot of effort put into this and it might not be completely be correct, but if there is ANY questions please contact me on Discord: Kaleknikker#8627 or Email: Lucasmeyer2003@gmail.com
Preferiably message me on discord instead of mail.

I have used about 1.5kg of PLA white filament so i can paint it later and a original munitions band so the band is not included in the files.

WARNING:
All the files are 1:4 ratio and NEED to be upscaled 400%, this is really easy to do in cura.
It does not have moving parts except for the top of the replica where you but ammo in, that is movable but it does not look real on the inside.

I used superglue to connect the parts and woodfillers for any split i can see inbetween, also sanding the gun so it looks like 1 piece is recommended.

The files are named in order and maybe a little messy, sorry for that.

I have looked on diverse sites for a 1:1 replica and could not find it, also there is no instructions to make this except for messaging me.
My replica is printed completely on the Ender 3 Pro and might not fit your printer, please message me if you do not know how to make it fit, and for the people known with Meshmixer, you can split it there.

Donations are not neccecairy but would be really appreciated since i put a lot of time figuring this out.

Additional note form ~RuskiWafl

Barrel was cut in 3 pices so it will fit in ender 3 build volume.

"Metal Rod" part can be replaced with printed one, also included, or you can use actual metal rod.
Same thing goes for the Pin part, but it is preferable to use some kind of metal rod/pipe.

IMPORTANT !! Don't glue Front and Back Cover parts to main body. They have to pivot on the Pin part.
