Tatooine Moisture Vaporator

I modeled the Moisture Vaporator for a Tatooine diorama I’m working on. I need a bunch of background parts and greeblies, so I started with the moisture vaporator. This is based on the moisture vaporators seen in the Mandalorian series. The vaporator consists of 6 or 7 parts, depending on which variation you build. One variant has the spinner directly attached and printed on top, and the other has the spinner printed separate from the top with tiny holes, so you can use a section of .5mm brass wire to support the spinner.

This was a fun project to do. I have been wanting to model a Vaporator for a long time now, and I’m glad I finally got around to doing it. I painted them today (More images are in the gallery below) and they turned out better than I expected.

There are 6 base parts for the Moisture Vaporator. The main body parts are keyed so they align properly. There are three side bars that go around the perimeter of the vaporator, and slide into square recesses in the bottom and middle parts of the base, and this is why the main body parts need to be keyed.

The vaporator goes well with my Tatooine Greeblies.

NEW: If you want to use the Moisture Vaporator in your own Tatooine diorama or display, the STLs are available for purchase on Cults3D

This model was printed in Anycubic’s ABS-Like Pro 2 resin, which works well for toy grade prints.
