Arachnid Task Lamp

thingiverse

Does your workspace suffer from clutter and dim lighting? This formidable, 36-eyed task lamp puts your junk to good use as ballast in the convenient storage tray. It employs four of the widely available 9-LED flashlights (25mm diameter), each individually adjustable for broad or focused illumination. The flashlights can be easily removed for remote lighting. Additionally, it serves as a self-lit snack bowl for your upcoming Halloween party. Print Settings: Printer: UDIO Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2mm Infill: 20% Notes: You will need to print one base, one spider, four clips, and four links. Post-Printing: The ball and socket joints should assemble easily. Work them around until they operate smoothly. Each socket features a hole for a 3/8" long 4-40 screw (or a 10mm long M3) and nut (nine total). You can adjust the clamping force on each to achieve just the right amount of friction to secure the lamp in place. If the ball joints feel sticky or squeaky, apply a small amount of light grease or vaseline. You will also need four of the inexpensive 9-LED flashlights. I purchased mine at Harbor Freight (which are sometimes even free with a coupon), but any flashlight with a 25mm diameter body should work.
