Just make sure to use the right STLs labeled mini at the end.</i></p><p>There are two possible ways to print the frame depending on the hardware available to you.<br><br><strong>Type A</strong></p><figure class="image"><img src="https://i.imgur.com/sHkw33R.jpg" alt="Type A"></figure><p><strong>Hardware needed:</strong><br>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>6 x M3x16 hex socket head cap screw (ISO 4762)</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br><strong>Type B</strong></p><figure class="image"><img src="https://i.imgur.com/nhdE7JV.jpg" alt="Type B"></figure><p><strong>Hardware needed:</strong></p><ul><li>6 x M3x16 hex socket head cap screw (ISO 4762)</li><li>6 x M3 hex nut (ISO 4032)<br>&nbsp;</li></ul><p><strong>Installation guide:</strong><br><br>To assemble the HexLamp follow the steps as listed below.</p><ul><li>Lay the first part of the frame flat down and slide all 5 inserts straight in.</li><li>Make sure all the inserts sit flush.</li><li>Slide the second part of the frame in from the top</li><li>Use the hardware specified above to screw the frame together.</li><li>Install the Ikea Hemma</li><li>Finally install a Lightbulb<br>&nbsp;</li></ul><p>The lamp is still a WIP and as that is subject to change so make sure to check in for any updates.
