These are the Original Death Watch Mandalorian Gauntlets MKII (Male) with Integrated Hinge. I modeled and shared on thingiverse March 2014 Those these are cleaned up a little.
I know others on here have downloaded my files and are passing them off as their own (complete with my watermark, and even image files taken directly from thingiverse) Please respect the author of 3D designs and not encourage people to rip work off others. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:272795
They are a mirror image of the Bo Katan and a close match to the gauntlets used by most male deathwatch in Star Wars the clone wars season 5
The hinge has been designed to use a common bicycle spoke as the hinge pin. You can buy these from bike shops for $2 and cut to size.
The model has been modified with supports to minimize curling on the base. these will need to be removed after printing.
I strongly suggest using a bicycle spoke as the hinge pin, rather than some ABS 1.75 filament.

The prints were very clean and came out well, the design is very good. I should have planned better for the hinge, and drilled my pilot holes for the rod before I glued the halves together. I intend to install arduino boards in each to control lights and sound effects.
