Greek Meander Lamp

thingiverse

Lamp with Ancient Greek meander patterns. Very simple to print because it's flat and can be scaled down to fit smaller beds. ####Instructions 1 **Print** Part 1 and part 2 should be printed solid with 2 walls. More details are below. If your first layer turns out well, everything else will go smoothly, so you might want to print it at a higher temperature and maybe a bit slower. 2 **Assemble** Bend part 1 and part 2 together with glue. If some parts are hard to bend, lightly score the bends with the back of a knife. 3 **Light it up** Place an IKEA LEDBERG (ideally with the lens removed) in the middle of the bottom. Other lamps with a small exposed LED also work. For more information I recommend checking out this make which has tons of tips on printing and assembly. ####Printing & scaling When slicing, make sure that the part of the bottom layer that's going to be bent goes diagonally or perpendicularly as in the picture. You may need to experiment with wall count and line width. I used 2 walls at 0.5mm wide for the full sized version. This model can be scaled to fit a ~200mm bed. Just scale normally and make sure that you still get a proper bottom layer. You may need to lower layer width slightly to get the correct bend as described above. There is also a remix with a cut up version that can be printed in full size on a smaller bed.
