Pagoda Style Lampshade

thingiverse

I snagged this lamp for my workbench, purely because it struck me as an amusing anachronism in the midst of my 3D printing projects. It's a table lamp inspired by an old kerosene lamp, which I found at IKEA: https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/taernaby-table-lamp-with-led-bulb-anthracite-60323889/. But when I'm using it to light my workspace, too much of the light is shooting straight into my eyes. So, I decided to design a lampshade, loosely based on a pagoda roof. It's divided into 4 identical parts because of the small size of my printer, which is a Monoprice Select Mini Pro. I'm still testing it out, so you might want to hold off before printing it, but I just couldn't wait to share. I'm printing mine in green because I have a bunch of green filament that's been gathering dust, and also because the Jade Pagoda from Dr. Who popped into my head. Update: I've taken down the MK III version due to a flaw in one section, so I uploaded the corrected MK IV instead. If you want it to be symmetrical all around, print 4 copies of the MK IV file. Since mine will be placed next to a wall, I'm printing 2 copies of the MK IV and one each of the MK IV rear files.
