My name is ...
You may not know it by the lack of 3d models, but I am a huuuge Harry Potter fan !
So when a cool suggestion by our very own Trace Wilson came to build all the horcruxes , i loved it and started with the first one right away :D
Tom Riddle diary - this one is a bit specific . Remember back when people were building props without 3d printer ? :D well, i wanted to try and bring the best of both worlds in this one
You will find 2 build options/paths you can take.
1 - fully 3d printable diary ( i know some of you make the awesome leather paint job and weathering and no doubt in my mind you will make it look like the real deal) , with the display stand and basilisk fang piercing thru the horcrux. The basilisk fang is removable ofcourse, so that will make it that much cooler
I also added 3 plaque versions that you can add/remove to the stand : a clean one, at "Tom Marvolo RIddle one", and "Tom RIddle diary", so feel free to choose the one that works best for you :)
2 -You might ask yourself why print a notebook if you can just buy it . My thought exactly, so that's where the option build 2 comes. You can buy a real notebook and use the Book corner parts to make it look like the diary, as well the Tom Marvolo Riddle stamp that is included for that final touch. Ofcourse, destroy the notebook however you please and add the basilisk fang :D easy right ?
The book corners are 1mm thick so they are as close as possible to "real" ones, while maintaining printability. Attached you will see a test piece i did
There are also pre sliced versions for filament prints using 5x5 connections.
I hope you will enjoy this build , i can't wait to print out that basilisk fang :D
Added to "we are makers" January 2024 folder :)

Any way to get the book in separate pieces? Cover, binding, pages and corners? If I print it all as one and do a multi color print on my AMS, it'll take 40 hours to print. It'd be great to have those separated and I can then glue them together.
Unfortenatelly no, as it was not designed to be solit that way, i had diferent intentions with it , the ones i posted :/
you need to come to Orlando FL / US for the Universal studios Diagon Alley, Damn, just damn its cool
oh i would love to :D the closest to me is the London WB HP studios, so maybe i visit that one first , and one day, who knows :D
I'm not a big enough Potter fan to recognize, but it looks cool
Thank you :D there are many cool props in that franchise and lots of people are looking for them, so will try to explore more stuff :)
Yesss. More Harry Potter stuff. So excited for this :D
