Fire Lamp Base - work in progress

thingiverse

I'm creating a hacked-up version of the outstanding FireLamp project from Cine-Lights: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOG6Bi2kvpDa1c8gHWZI5CQ/feed. Since I couldn't find a suitable lamp to hack in the US, I used a tall glass storage jar I found on Amazon instead. I'll post photos and details after this first test print is done and everything fits together. The jar will fit inside the print upside down from the top with the lamp portion mounted on the inside of the lid and the uno mounted on standoffs on the top of the lid which is now pointing downward. I included cutouts for mounting the Adafruit amplified microphone, power jack, and standard thru-hole style mini pushbutton. Initially, I'll hot-glue the parts in place but may design some screw holes after testing. I considered giving the print a floor and mounting the UNO there to save print time and plastic but decided on mounting it to the lid instead. I chose a pushbutton because it was what I had on hand; better choices would be panel mount styles which are easy to swap out in the Tinkercad design. If you enjoy LED projects, check out Cine-Lights' feed mentioned above: they're great about helping and sharing code and have created some of the best single strand WS2812B VU meter animations I've seen. This thing was made with Tinkercad; edit it online at https://www.tinkercad.com/things/aelbu0Raf7u.
