Nope. CNC milled a buck, then I made a mold so I can make spares.

They're made of fibre glass.

My 3D printer isn't that big.

Yeah, that's why I asked. Pretty big to be printed. Although I know there are places you can send off to get such a thing done. Would be pretty expensive I would think. Did you send it out somewhere to have it milled?

I built my own mill about 6 years ago. 4 axis machine. The rotary axis was used to mill the engine / controller cover.

My CAD work prior to building it.

Here's a video from a few years back. testing the rotary axis. I need to mill a job on a 45degree angle to get under cut on one side.

Someone Just Bought a Batsuit for $250,000 and the BatPod for $500,000
Batman's Batsuit from The Dark Knight (2008) and The Dark Knight Rises (2012).
Someone just bought what could be this year’s most expensive Halloween costume.
A private collector bought a batsuit worn by Christian Bale in “The Dark Knight” and “The Dark Knight Rises” for £192,000 ($250,000). Another bidder snagged the batpod—the heavily armed motorcycle used by Batman as he battled the Joker and Bane in two “Dark Knight” movies—for £312,000. And since crime doesn't pay, Bane’s costume sold for £96,000.
Featured in The Dark Knight (2008) and The Dark Knight Rises (2012), the Batpod was conceived by Christopher Nolan and production designer Nathan Crowley.
The costume was up for sale as part of an auction organized by The Prop Store, a U.K. memorabilia company. The offering of more than 500 costumes, props and other pieces of movie history brought in more than £1.5 million, auctioneers said.
In the end, about a dozen people were bidding for the Batpod online, over the phone and in person. Bidding opened online earlier in the month, but bids had only gotten up to £35,000 by the morning of the auction. It jumped to £180,000 online before the live auction opened and finished up at £260,000, before the buyer’s premium took it to £312,000.
But it’s probably a safe bet that an imposing caped crusader won't be ringing the doorbell to trick-or-treat anytime soon. “These don’t get worn by anybody, They really end up in glass display cases.
