When 3D printing first hit the market as a viable technology, it was being imagined as a way to fabricated replacement organs, to help space programs create new and needed pieces at the ISS, or bring much needed items to extremely remote areas. But perhaps this industrial revolution’s crowning achievement is giving us an ability to make a Pip-Boy now that we can’t just go out and buy one.
Yvo de Haas has released a free schematic for the Pip-Boy 3000 Mark IV designed around the one coming for Fallout 4. The 3D designer has previously released a tutorial on the Pip-Boy 3000, which is based on the versions from 3 and New Vegas. The new one even features a little (non-functioning) pop-up cassette deck and handles your phone in the same way that the licensed Bethesda edition does. There are even three different size options.
Obviously, this assumes you are some lucky devil who either has or has access to a 3D printer. In that case, could you make me one, too?
