Description
This is a reprapped replica of a traditional type of adze made by the Maori in New Zealand. The blade is usually made from pounamu, a type of nephrite closely resembling jade. Fine specimens are often worn as jewellery in the form of a necklace pendant. The bindings are traditionally native flax, but I have taken the liberty of using PTFE threadseal tape for my version.

Instructions
The picture shows a half-sized model. The full-size one is 220mm across, so you may have to print it on the diagonal. You may want to make an adze blade from other materials such as clear acrylic or even real pounamu.
