Started revising custom Beyblades,
Will upload the 3D test print of the Dragoon wheel soon.

That's amazing. You are really talented with these 3D design programs it appears

New Dragoon pics, the bey has been revised to be compatible with existing bey parts.
Will post colored versions after i finish the Dranzer and Wolborg beys.
Attached also a test 3D print of the Dragoon metal wheel in plastic, the stainless
would have cost way too much if I messed up (and I did).
Will continue to post as i finish them.

Wait, what? you printed your own 3D model?
That is so awesome! It looks amazing!

You aught to try to make a Zero G Chrome Wheel some time. It would be interesting to see what designs you could make in that format(?).
Not a big fan of the ZeroG blades, but i might give it a try in the future.

The Dranzer Wheel so far still need to tweak it a bit.

Got my Dragoon Metal Wheel in the mail today. Lost alot of details but overal it came out great.

Custom string launcher. Not yet finished but its getting there. Ignore the colors, they are for viewing purposes.

Do you use auto desk? I like that software a lot. We use it in the engineering class at school.
I use mostly blender.
Version 1 of my beyclip, seen here without keyring and carabiner.
Holds your bey so you can hang it from your backpack or belt loop.
Some of the parts on this are a bit thin so I'm working on version 2
which strengthens it up. Acts as a beytool and has a place for the
sticker of the bey.

Dude, that is amazing! By the way try not to double post. Have you considered selling that?
If I can get the design correct I might put a few up on ebay.
After lurking for years, I've come out of hiding to express my enthusiasm for this project. It's like those picture-houses who specialise in restoring old films for re-release in HD formats. Brilliant work!
When I looked at 3D printing for blades in 2011, the price was inhibitive (edited) but that was only really a problem because I didn't know how strong the result would be - whether it could actually be used in a fight, for example. Have you tested the material?
For everyone else: 3D printing in stainless essentially means impregnating a printed abs/stainless framework with molten bronze - the abs melts away and the bronze fuses with the steel to give the printed framework strength. That's why all metallic prints have a bronze-like hue; but is it strong enough for actual use as a blade?
Would you mind telling us who you used for the print? Would you use them again? Can we see a pic of the wheel assembled with generic parts? I have found close-fitting 3D prints can need some filing - is this the same?
I'd gladly purchase one of these If I can just see how all the parts fit correctly. Get that part right and I'd gladly buy more of your designs - with some consideration of price, of course, but I understand this process isn't cheap. I have missed the wonderful 4D format.

Did some testing last night, made some videos and will post them as soon as I edit them. The dragoon wheel is at least as strong as a legit bey metal wheel if not a bit stronger due to not being hallowed. I used shapeways to produce the wheel and compared to regular bey it wasn't cheap. The only filing I had to do was due to a design flaw on my part and I have since rectified that mistake. I make a few wireframe pics so you can see how well the fit together. The wheels current being set up as Dragoon Kronos 105RS.
Looking forward to the vids. I've also edited my cost estimates above - that probably should have been confined to PM; my bad. Have you considered just selling directly through Shapeways? I find their shopping system quite agreeable.
Also, its a pity this area of the forum doesn't get more traffic. I'm sure people would be falling over themselves in envy if they only knew about your work. You got a webfolio or something?

Videos are taking longer to edit than I thought so heres a pic of the bit beast clear wheel prototype.
Note: it uses a special bolt that's only half as thick. Will post more pics as soon as I finalize the design.

Your Dragoon Metal Wheel spins to the right? Shouldn't it be left ?
The Dragoons I used as reference all spin right.
im going to make a costom fusionwheel useing storm and some sheet meatel then screw it togeather
are you going to sell your dragoon wheel on ebay

As soon as I'm confident enough in the specs it will be available at shapeways.com as well as some of the other parts.
