illuminated Sheep

thingiverse

Sheep that can be illuminated by RGB LED are a reality. A lipo battery and charge controller are expertly integrated into the base for seamless functionality. The figure is printed without any infill to achieve a lightweight and sleek design. My slicer settings for the figure (Cura) are optimized for perfection: Layer height: 0.1 Wall thickness: 1.2, achieved with three layers of 0.4 wall lines Top/bottom thickness: 0.8 Filling: 0% to maintain an open design Combing mode: turned off to prevent any disruptions The white filament used for this project should be translucent to allow the RGB LED light to shine through. Suitable options include Geeetec and janbex filaments. Printing without infill is only possible if there's no hole at the bottom of the figure. Therefore, a hole must be drilled into the base after printing. Additional parts required for this project include: A switch, such as the one found on eBay under item number 332771007314 An RGB-LED slow light, available on eBay under item number 282083177174 A lipo charging module, which can be purchased on eBay under item number 263782499558 A lipo battery, with options starting from 183257989282 and going down to 100mAh or smaller units A MICRO USB adapter, available on eBay under item number 153515136089 A 22 Ohm Resistor To ensure maximum visibility of the LEDs on the charge controller, the base-bottom should be printed in white.
