LED strip holder for Wanhao Duplicator i3

thingiverse

I crafted a minimalist model of a holder for an 8mm LED strip to complement my upcoming printer upgrade. Each individual holder is precisely 100mm long, making it the perfect length for two segments of a 60 LEDs/m strip. The accompanying STL file features not one but two holders, allowing you to easily fit them onto your steel printer frame. You can place one on either side or two by your preference. To demonstrate its functionality, I temporarily secured a piece of strip in place using a gentle adhesive, illustrating the design's potential. This gives users a clear view of one holder without a strip and another with it seamlessly integrated. A notable feature of this holder is its ease of adjustment; it can be effortlessly moved up or down while staying securely fastened. To craft my design, I used high-quality PLA filament. UPDATE: I have since created a stylish cover to perfectly complement the LED holder. This sophisticated cover skillfully fits snugly over the existing holder with an adhesive LED strip in place. It is cleverly designed to stay securely positioned, preventing any downward or upward movement.
