Lithophane Light Box

thingiverse

This is a Lithophane Light Box. I used the online tool at https://itslitho.com/ to create the lithophanes. Basically you can upload any picture you want. Just keep in mind with this light box design, the image is going to be a square. Box uses 4 photos: 1 Left, 1 Right, 1 Front, and 1 on Top. These work for light sockets: https://www.amazon.com/Pendant-Sockets-Sopoby-4-pack-Hanging/dp/B01M5F3DA2 I used a LED light (40w equivalent), since they put out less heat than other lights. I have printed them in PLA and PETG, I think the PETG will probably hold up better for long term. Settings for making lithophanes on website: Dimensions 113mm x 113mm Minimum thickness to 0.8 Maximum thickness to 3.2 Border 3mm Print Settings: Lithophanes using 100% infill and 0.1 layers,+ Brim single layer with 10 outlines Box using 15% infill, 0.2mm layer height, 4 top/bottom layers, 3 outer layers Top Corner pieces using 15%, 0.2 layer height, 4 top/bottom layers, 5 outer layers, +Brim with 2 layers and 10 outlines. Assemble with M3 socket cap screws The main box has supports in the Left, Front, and Right; that will need to be cutout after printing. The top corner pieces are all the same except the back corner. The rest should be able to print without supports, just rotate the top corner/edge pieces (135 degrees on my printer).
