<p>Before you start:</p><ul><li>you need to have a bulb-holder matching dimension (41mm outer diameter - I can make a different dimension if needed)</li><li>the bulb-holder can pass through the opening in the platform so no need to unmount it from the wires - just remove the light bulb</li><li>a way to mount the platform to the ceiling (e.g. screws)</li><li>LED light bulb (I use 15 W)</li></ul><p>Printing:</p><ul><li>Print from transparent material (I used Verbatim PLA Transparent but it's a bit shady - I believe <a href="https://www.prusa3d.com/cs/produkt/prusament-petg-clear-1kg/">https://www.prusa3d.com/cs/produkt/prusament-petg-clear-1kg/</a> will give more light through - hope your <strong>likes</strong> will help me get it for free ;-)</li><li>I didn't try vase mode but could work nicely</li><li>No supports needed</li><li>Sized to be printable on Prusa Mini</li><li>Put the main part to the pad so that the cup holes are at the printing bed and the big opening is at the top.&nbsp;</li><li>Print the brick-light-cup 4 times</li><li>The rest should be obvious.</li><li>I did my print with 0.4 mm print head and 0.15 mm layer height</li></ul><p>Mounting to the ceiling:</p><ul><li>First screw the pad and the bulb holder platform to the ceiling (You may need to increase the height of the pad if you have a rough ceiling) - don't forget to drive the wires with the bulb holder through the hole in the pad and platform</li><li>Insert the bulb-holder in the holder of the platform and insert the bulb</li><li>Insert the cups to the main part (you can glue them if you want - I didn't need to)</li><li>Put the main part on the ceiling turned a bit to the side and then turn it back so that the flaps slide in between the ceiling and the bulb platform (to the slot created by the pad)</li></ul><p>Warning: <strong>Use only LED bulb!</strong> Heat from normal light bulb could melt the plastic</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
