Gothic Lantern Base with Brackets

thingiverse

When I embarked on crafting my own custom Gothic Lantern, I was thrilled to discover that numerous enhancements were readily available! My initial plan was to incorporate the socket/cord/switch assembly from a TVARS lamp by IKEA into the lantern's design. To my astonishment, leonardlee had already created a socket mount on Thingiverse (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3444053) that perfectly complemented my project. I swiftly added brackets to enable seamless attachment of the socket mount onto muad_did's exceptional base (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3687437). I decided to share the final result here, as it proved to be a fantastic solution and greatly simplified the process of assembling the entire lantern, particularly when obtaining the TVARS lamp itself was within reach due to our proximity to an IKEA store. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to ask! Please note: The scaling used in this .stl file is optimized for a Gothic Lantern printed at 100% scale. Be sure to adjust accordingly if you are printing your lantern at a different scale.
