Adam Savage embarked on a journey to a galaxy far, far away on a recent episode of Tested as he worked on creating an Amban phase pulse blaster prop replica from the Disney+ series, The Mandalorian. According to Savage, this is something he is working on to go with his The Mandalorian cosplay he is creating.
Adam embarks on his first full prop replica project using his shop’s new Form 3L 3D printer: a replica of the Amban “tuning fork” blaster as seen in The Mandalorian! It’s an extensive build that’s also mixed-material, combining 3D printed resin parts with carved wood and machined components as well, giving it a veracity not only in form but also weight and feel–as if it lives in the Star Wars universe. It’s an essential prop for Adam’s Mandalorian cosplay.
