Would you like to support my work? :) Check out my full catalogue with exclusives, early access and commercial licences.   A table lamp inspired by the tasty mushroom Boletus edulis. It consists of two parts that are connected with a thread. The head comes presupported and no special settings are needed. The files have been testes with both US and EU standard sockets that are widely available.   Versions included Base_screw_socket: The Base to be used with E14 (EU) or E12 (US) sockets that come with a screw-on attachment ring (check the images for a cross section with measurements). Base_spring_socket: The base to be used with E12 (US) sockets that come with a spring load clip (check the images for a cross section with measurements) Head_closed: The head closed. Head_closed_presupported: The head closed with support already in place. Head_open: The head with an opening.   Instructions Check the provided images for measurements. Get a lamp socket kit and a matching LED bulb. Under no circumstances use any other light than LED due to potential heat development! You can easily get the sockets with cord and switch on Amazon, Ikea or your local hardware store. Check the provided images to decide which version to print. Choose the base according to your socket and the head according to your preference on weather you want the top to be open or closed. Refer to the print settings below before you slice the parts. If you choose the closed version I recommend my presupported files, if you want to create the support structure yourself use the one without. Print the two parts If you printed Head_closed or head_closed_presupported: – remove the printed support material after cooldown. It comes off easily and no tools are required. Insert the Socket (without bulb) from below. If you printed the Base_screw_Socket: Screw on the Ring from above into the base to secure the socket. Insert the bulb. Screw on the head. Enjoy your new lamp!   Size assembled ca 160 x 160 x 160 mm
