Can this be scaled back to fit an ender 5 pro (220x220)?
Hello - I purchased your chainmail v2.1 - 1 meter before realizing that I would be unable to print it on my Bambu Lab PS1. If you have a slightly smaller version that will fit on my 256 x 256 print bed, could I please have that? Otherwise, I would like to request a refund for that download as Iʻll never be able to use it. I purchased the Dwarven Style Chainmail instead, but I need a lot of it. Is there a way to print it on multiple layers so that I can print more efficiently? Iʻm hoping to print 1 meter of the Dwarven Style in place of the 1 meter chainmail. My first preference is a smaller scale version of the v2.1 chainmail, but if thatʻs not available to me, then please assist me with a refund and your guidance to print the Dwarven on a larger scale if possible. THANK YOU!
Hello, I am in the midst of printing several of your chainmail V2.0 "game changer" version and I'm wondering if you have made any video or how to directions on linking several sheets of chainmail together properly using the printed single links? I would love to know how to get a fluid look so it doesn't look like sections put together rather than a cohesive sheet. Also, I purchased your latest sleeve file and after printing it up, I tried it on and it was way too small to get past my elbow!
Note: Flashforge AD5X printer, scaled down print to fit bed at X-220.00, Y-181.33 Z-45.07, 2.8 layer height (largest for this particular printer) It is working well and I'm getting successful prints!
Hi! Thanks so much for your message 😊
On our social media, we have videos showing how the sheets are assembled and how to link multiple chainmail panels together for a more fluid, cohesive look. That should help achieve a seamless result rather than visible sections.
I’m also really glad to hear the file worked well for you when scaled down to a smaller size. Changing the dimensions of this design often causes printing issues, so it’s great that you’ve been getting successful prints and good results.
I don’t know your exact size, but once the full chainmail garment is assembled, the shoulder section tends to drop a bit and the sleeve sits lower. It usually ends around mid-arm and slightly below the elbow. Hopefully that makes sense — you’ll be able to see this much more clearly once the full chainmail is assembled.
Thanks for your quick responce. I'll check instagram for your videos. Thanks again
Hi, I purchased your file, but it doesn't work on any computer or slicer. On every computer, the slicer gets stuck at 15%.
Can you tell me how to fix this?
The tpu wings: I noticed part 2 and 3 are not hollow unless I print without infill. All the other parts seem to have a second set of walls as I would expect, with the interior hollow.
Hello, Any chance you are working on a scalemail file like your chainmail sheet?
Hi, I was wondering how big the CHAINMAIL V2.1 - 1 METER OF MEDIEVAL ARMOR FOR COSPLAY is on the print plate if I want to print it true to its size.
hi i bought the 2.1 sleeves and i was wondering if you could make an upgrade pack to go to the full Chainmail Armor 2.1 that has the additional pieces for the cost of the difference? can you make a back, front left, and front right set for $15?
Hey :)
I bought the following file (https://cults3d.com/de/modell-3d/mode/chainmail-v2-0-is-here-large-sheet-and-it-s-a-game-changer) and wanted to ask if there's any way to split this file, as I don't need that much of it. Let's say half, for example.
Hey the slice isnt working for me it always stops and then the programm crashes.
Hello,
The hooks fell apart that are holding the scales together. I laid it on my shoulder and it started falling apart. Printed on bambu p1s. The rest of it looks great
Hi! Thanks for your feedback.
We’ve never had that issue happen with an optimal print. We’ve seen something similar with other files only when there’s an extrusion or calibration problem during printing. If you’d like, I can help you troubleshoot to make sure everything prints correctly. Let me know!
Hi mate. I am having trouble slicing your v2 chainmail. It keeps filling. Any advice.
Hi i mistakenly downloaded/paid for the file twice, would you please refund one of the purchases to paypal
Thank you so much!! I’ll post pictures when complet
I've tried printing the 2.0 version. I needed a little tweaking on the settings and have now upgraded my printer. Thinking of revisiting this, and I got an email for the updated version, which I can access without paying extra. (Thank you.) When I download the new 2.1 version, I get the same 2.0 version... Help?
Hi! 😊
The file has been updated — the changes are quite subtle but were made to help optimize the printability of the model. You might not notice major visual differences, but it should perform slightly better during printing.
Thanks for revisiting the design and for your feedback!
Thanks. It turns out, the name is the same and includes the version 2.0 in the name. However, on opening the archive, it actually contains the 2.1 files. Now to try to get it to work on a Core One... because you want 3 mm, and it only has presets for 2.8mm
Hello I recently purchased and downloaded the chainmail armor 2.1 (https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/fashion/chainmail-armor-create-your-own-super-light-chainmail) and did not realize the bed size needed exceeded mine by quite a bit having to scale down to 90% would you happen to have a file available for a smaller print bed size? I currently have a print bed size of 220x220x250
Hi! Did you try printing it at 90%? I’d love to know if it worked for you. I’ve been considering making a smaller sheet version for more compact print beds — I’ll let you know here as soon as it’s ready!
@Propsmaker - did you happen to make a slightly smaller version for the chainmail v2.1? I have also encountered the same problem trying to print on a Bambu PS1 256x256 print bed with an error saying that it is too close to the exclusion area and there may be some collisions when printing. Any options or fix for this?
Hi I really like your Articulated Scalemail Bracer. Just printed one in petg. Took about 10h no supports. looks great! It is a little small for me though. I was wondering if you could design one that is a bit wider and longer. Or provide the step files etc. I could scale it up or remix it myself but I though it would be good to ask.
In any case love it thanks for the design!
Thanks a lot! I’m really glad you liked it! You’re absolutely allowed to remix or scale it up for personal use only — no problem at all, as long as it’s not published or shared. I made it that size so it would fit most printers’ build volumes.
Hello! I am interested in your listing of Chainmail v2.1 - 1 meter of medieval armor for cosplay. I was wondering if you had the measurement for the shorter side length of the chainmail piece? Thanks!
Hi! 😊
Depending on the direction you stretch it, the approximate measurements are 100 x 22 cm or 80 x 35 cm.
Let me know if you need any additional info!
Hi, any reason why the new 2.1 version is rectangular not square? Had to reduce size to 94% to get it on the build plate. Previous version fit perfectly at 100%
Hi! The new 2.1 version was designed to match the rectangular Prusa beds (250x220). I’m planning to make a smaller version soon, and I’ll let you know here as soon as it’s ready!
Hi! Can you tell how long does it take to print this one? Just approximately. https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/fashion/chainmail-v2-0-is-here-large-sheet-and-it-s-a-game-changer
I wonder if this has anything to do with what printer you're using. Or what settings you're using. Or what material you're using. Or whether you know what you're doing. Do you realize, the slicer actually tells you this info when you do put in all of those things? Its right there at your fingertips, every time you use it.
It really depends on the printer and settings. On my Prusa Core One, it takes about 1 day and 13 hours with 0.3 mm layer height (first and subsequent layers), PLA, and 0.5 mm Z-lift.

Hi Propsmaker - I purchased the full shirt but had a lot of issues printing the test file (Rings not separating, rings breaking at the supports). I then also purchased and have had a lot more success with the V2.1 file, and have almost finished the first full sheet. Is it possible to organise a refund for the full shirt as i wont be trying that file now that the V2 is proving to be successful.
Sorry for the hassle - i didnt see the other file when i purchased the first one.
Hi! Unfortunately, Cults doesn’t allow me to issue refunds after a certain time. I have a Discord community where you can message me directly — I can offer you a free model as compensation.
Hello, I'm printing a full scalemail bikini set and I want to connect it using the chains you used in the pictures but I can't seem to find the file, they're 3d printed as well right? Could you provide a link to the file?
Can this be done on a Bambu Ps1?
Hi! 👋
We’ve just added the chain and connector to the model. Thanks for your patience and support!
I bought the chainmail shirt, in your description, notes you said there are bigger versions in the file but all I see are the short variants. I went to print it on my Bambu labs h2d and it failed pretty bad. do you have a 3mf by chance to get a idea on the recommended settings by chance?
https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/fashion/chainmail-armor-create-your-own-super-light-chainmail
Both versions are included — in the root of the download you’ll find all the standard files, and there’s also a ZIP with the variant ones.
In general, print failures happen because the ideal setup is 0.3 mm layer height (including the first layer) and a 0.5 mm Z-lift so the nozzle doesn’t collide with the rings and knock them loose while moving between them.
We also have a Discord server with a chainmail-only channel where many users share their print settings and results: https://linktr.ee/propsmaker
Does the articulated Spiked Pauldron need supports?
Hey! No, it doesn´t!! ;D
I need to make a coif-style helmet (with the neck/shoulder bits) for the theater - obviously I can piece it out of the 1.7m pattern by cutting and linking but is there any chance you've worked on such a pattern? Happy to pay for design time. [I've already verified your test print runs great, thank you!]
