Laser Cut LED Dolphin Cube

prusaprinters

<p>This is a laser cut cube with a dolphin pattern on the front face. Behind this pattern is a frosted piece of acrylic, which gives a very nice glow when there is a light behind it. The cube has a size of 100 x 100 x 100mm, so it is very nice as a decor piece on something like a shelf.</p> <p>There are two cut-outs on the back piece, one for a power connector and the other for a power switch. You can mount these using either hot glue or screws (depending on the type of connector and switch).</p> <p>To light the piece of acrylic, I placed a short piece of PVC pipe in the cube, with an LED-strip wrapped around it. To focus all the light towards the front of the cube, I covered the inside with aluminium foil (you could use aluminium tape too, if you have that).</p> <p>If you are interested in this cube, but you'd like to see a different design on the front, let me know! When I have the time, I could model it for you.</p> <p><strong>Support</strong><br/> If you want to support me for the designs I publish for free, please consider using my <a href="https://bit.ly/2XYWpHW">AliExpress Affiliate Link</a> when buying something from AliExpress. It doesn't cost you anything extra, but helps me out a lot :)</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><h3>Category: Decor Summary</h3> <p>This is a laser cut cube with a dolphin pattern on the front face.
