Backlit Acrylic Base Generator
thingiverse
Once you've got a laser cutter, etching fancy backlit acrylic signs is child's play. Crafting the base that cradles them — and channels the light from a strip of LEDs into the acrylic — takes a bit more finesse.\r\n\r\nThis Customizer spits out a 3D printable base that securely grips the acrylic sign, and features a pre-cut channel for a strip of 10mm LEDs just beneath it. It also generates endcaps for the base, to keep everything tidy and hold various LED power cords in place with ease.\r\n\r\nConfigurable options abound, including the thickness of the acrylic sheet, the height and width of the sign, the style of the base, and the shape of the base's profile: Pyramid-like or rounded with precision.\r\n\r\nUPDATE 6/24/2019: Slight chamfering on the base has been refined, and a "Business Card Holder" option has been added, featuring a tray in front of the sign for extra functionality.
