Box Lamp with Lens

thingiverse

A customizable box lamp. Can sit on a table or be wall mounted. 180mm square, 5mm walls, endless possibilities! The lens should be printed with the flat side down. You want a very level bed for the cleanest look. Recommended to print in white or glow in the dark filament for the first .8mm. The lens can inserted so that it is flush with the front of the box or inverted. You can glue anything you want to the lens so it is infinitely customizable. If you have a way to print multiple colors you can print directly to the lens as well. The included art heart 3mf file is an example of a multicolor print without filament changes on higher layers. Other options: - Make your design more than 10mm tall and then pause the print and change to a darker filament for the higher layers. See the Coffee Break image. - Print all layers above .8mm in other colors if you don't care about the lens rim being white. The lens is .8mm thick. See the Love is Love image. After printing you can line the box with nearly any LED strips. Kits are readily available that include a controller and a power supply. I use ws2812b strips with a USB controller to keep everything simple and allow my lamps to be used from a portable battery pack.
