Anet A8 (Jan.2017) NO SCREWS NEEDED - Prusa i3 MK8 EXTRUDER LED LIGHT

thingiverse

Tired of fumbling with a flashlight to inspect first layers, I created this LED holder for my Anet A8. Those affordable LED bars (five bucks for five pieces each color) are available at http://www.banggood.com/de/5Diatone-3-4S-LED-Decoration-Board-Strip-Set-For-250-Class-Frame-p-962285.html?rmmds=search No screws required, just clip it on. Grooves accommodate 1.5mm cables. Be cautious of +/- markings on the LED bars before soldering. I left some clearance from the heat block but suggest printing in ABS. This was not an easy print, but my Anet performed well, with everything fitting perfectly without any adhesive. Depending on your material and setup, you may need a drop of super glue or some gentle sandpaper treatment... Lasers, friends!
