Lithopane Lighted Box (without Supports)

thingiverse

A beautiful display case for custom lithopanes! This version of the design can be built without supports in just three easy pieces. To start, check out the print settings below. Print Settings: Rafts: None Needed! Supports: Absolutely Not Required! Notes: Make your own unique lithopane images using this customization link: http://www.thingiverse.com/apps/customizer/run?thing_id=74322! Each box has four slots where you can attach up to four of these custom designs for display. The ideal lithopane dimensions are: HD Wide, horizontal orientation, small size, inverted colors (make sure the check box is selected!), no hole included, layer height of 0.2 mm, and 20 layers. For a clip light that fits into the base, take a look at this example on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000VX6A5K/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1. It's worth noting that you can replace the bulb with a cool LED one that won't get hot! A bright and efficient option is: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CRHG63Y/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1. If you choose to fill all four slots, be prepared to print seven separate components: the lithopane images, the box, the lid, and the light base. A big thank you goes out to justme4112 for the original design!
