In case anyone has been wondering. Bit of a hectic year, but an interesting journey. Pieces are still in engineering testing phases and given some recent durability and cost concerns, I need to upgrade the materials before I feel comfortable with the quality. New printer. Soon™ <3 -Z

oh yeah, I turned the sabers into a staff model. Saves on a controller and I'm really happy how the light diffusion turned out with the increased segment diameter. Next upgrade is a bigger 3d printer to make things in less pieces and polycarbonate versus current tough+/PETG builds. Flush button!

Close up of handle with flush button offset to one end. Staff is lit with the same ZettaLights controller as all my other builds.

Clear PETG (top) vs White Tough+ PETG is heavier feel vs the hollow Tough+ as it needs more wall and infill to be more durable. The result is a more hefty overall weight and feel when wielded. PETG is still somewhat more brittle than Tough+ overall, but both materials survived durability tests

I finally got the spoons to work on the head again. Fixed the eyebrow and cheek where it was badly balding. Bad quality fur (red) was shaved a bit too close on and brushed and it balded. But now. You can hardly tell what side is balded / was fixed lol This will be for sale soon. 🪷-Mori-🪷

Little 4 way USB-C cable inside a pack of rechargeable AA and AAA batteries at Costco. It can charge 3 of my boxes at once on my 18w brick. (1A each charge rate) Sadly it's sharing power to the USB-A and USB-C ports so I can't also charge my phone... Will use the AA and AAA somewhere... <3 -Z

Work shopping some hook and loop for slight adjustability at some key connection points. New X design Allows the leg strap add-ons on the current MFF 7-point build to be modular Will update with some better photos once the harness is on the fursuit it was measured for Set for LAUNCH! <3 -Z

New X design showing full length LED runs along both straps with a single O ring and hook and loop fastener to tie it together.
(Lower straps loop through O ring at front to offer some adjustability

Close up of an adjustment point for the X 4-Point design.
A square of hook on the end of the strap which is passed through the Chest O Ring.
A length of loop strip lines the back of the LED strap for the hook to attach. (Amount of adjustability depends on design, roughly 6 inches here for clarity. Adjustment points on other designs will typically be a few inches to reduce bulky excess material that doesn't have LEDs inside)

Wide view of 7-point design with leg strap add-ons slightly visible on the left and secured to the main harness via hook and loop.
Design incorporates buckles on the chest strap with slight adjustability points via hook and loop at the buckles.
The connection points at both hips offer adjusted for the waist straps via hook and loop on the back straps.
It also gives a more lightweight result with less buckle weight on top of the added few inches of fine tune adjustment.

A fox (Zetta) showing off the 7-point design.
Leg straps not connected here to show the base design.
7-point meaning there's 7 straps that meet at the chest.

Got a battery for the multimeter. Power testing puts my 600+ LED and 6+ hour runtime estimates in the ballpark of EXTREMELY conservative. TL;DR: there's enough juice to rave all night. Also run+charge via power bank or swap 18650 batteries. Either way, the power ceiling is HIGH. <3 -Z
