Formania Sazabi base with lights

thingiverse

For those who bought the v1 of the Formania Sazabi bust without the LEDs and wanted to add them, this is one possible solution. It is designed for LED diodes. The lightbase pegs plug into the lightbase so you can print w/o supports. I wired it up for usb power with a switch in the back running with two 3v white leds with 100ohm resistors. There are no cutouts in the base for anything so you can cut out and place stuff wherever you want. The easiest way is actually with a soldering iron (just melt a quick hole and plug in the lights anywhere you want - literally takes 3 seconds). For the arms of the light, it's simply a piece of thick wire with heat shrink over it. I used home electrical wiring (the stuff inside walls), but you can use a coat hanger or whatever you have on hand. This allows you to position the light pretty much wherever you want. This is a better solution than the coin batteries in the original as you can leave it on all the time and it can also act as a night light. Alternatively, you can also power it via batteries by customizing the stand.
