<p>Built around the pendant light cord available here:</p> <p><a href="https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0815WMD75/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1">https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0815WMD75/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1</a></p> <p>This is a lamp designed to be mounted on top of an Ikea Kallax Shelving system. The bracket includes multiple ways to secure the bracket to the top of the shelving. It can simply be press fit to easily move around. It can be secured with the included printed screw from either the top or the bottom. There are also M3 screw holes to secure from the top or a pass through M3 60mm aligned screw holes for maximum security on the shelf.</p> <p>All three files printed .20 mm layer height with a 15% infill.</p> <p>The bracket and screw can be printed in PLA.</p> <p>The lamp shade can be printed in anything translucent. I used Prusament PVB.<br/> There are holes designed into the bottom of the lamp shade to prevent heat build up from the bulb. I strongly recommend an LED bulb and not an incandescent bulb.</p> <p>More info about PVB here:</p> <p><a href="https://blog.prusaprinters.org/prusament-pvb-our-new-transparent-filament-made-for-easy-chemical-smoothing_43066/">https://blog.prusaprinters.org/prusament-pvb-our-new-transparent-filament-made-for-easy-chemical-smoothing_43066/</a></p> <p>I have included the STEP file for modifications.</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>I suggest only using supports for the end of the bracket. The overhangs on the front of the bracket, the lamp shade itself and the screw can all be printed without supports.</p> <p>I printed at .2mm layer height with a 15% infill. I suggest PLA for the bracket and screw and PVB or other translucent material for the lamp shade.</p>
