2 LED Lamps

pinshape

These two LED lamps may appear different, but they share a common foundation in their basic design. Both lamps have rounded edges instead of square ones, mirroring the shape of these two lamps. The larger lamp took 56 and a half hours to print due to its extensive internal structure that is not visible. This complex geometry arises from multiple overlapping shells. The overlapping shells are formed by doubling back on a more fundamental shape, an approach demonstrated in this blog post: http://birkbinnard.com/blog/do-the-twist2/. I created the smaller lamp assuming it would be impractical for people to print the larger one. The small lamp uses the same basic geometry as its bigger counterpart but is scaled down and features only a single twist. Additionally, I increased the number of ribs so they would match the smaller size. This reduced the printing time significantly to just under 17 hours. These lamps are designed to accommodate any "puck" light, which can be powered by either batteries or wall power.
