Evil Dragon Head Trophy

thingiverse

To bring my printed dragon head trophy to life, I installed two small LEDs in its eyes. First, I drilled a large hole through the back of the head and up to its snout. Then, I created smaller holes for the eye sockets that connected to the throat hole. Next, I threaded thin wires through each eye socket, attaching an LED at the front. After pulling the LEDs into the dragon's head, they appeared as glowing eyes. To power these LEDs, I soldered a resistor in series with each one and connected them to a 5V line from my extruder board using a servo connector. This simple modification transformed the dragon head, making it stare at me with a piercing, illuminated gaze.
