LED Pillar for 28mm Tabletop (Compatible with OpenForge2.0)

thingiverse

I created this pillar so I could have pillars for my OpenForge tile sets that I can use directly at the table. It operates using a standard electronic tea light and an LED. No glue or soldering is required. Assembly instructions: - Print the two pieces of the pillar with their flat sides facing down on the print bed. - Take apart an LED tea light and bend its pins as shown in the pictures. - The orientation of the LED doesn't really matter, just make sure that one pin fits into the slot of the base. - Cut 2 to 4 pieces of 1.75mm filament to about 1 to 1.5 cm lengths and push them into the base. This may require some force or pliers. - Ensure that neither pin of the LED touches the battery before pushing the two halves together (this makes the whole mechanism useless). - Press the two halves together and the "torch" should light up. I'd like to thank Devon Jones for designing his OpenForge2.0 tiles, which this torch is based on!
