Piano Light Box 6x7x7.5(rough)

This is a surprise birthday gift for my sister. I'm confident she will adore it. I've included stl and skp files so you can modify this to your own size and shape if desired. I utilize sketchup, as it's incredibly user-friendly. You can insert any type of led light inside. I obtained a free led strip light at Harbor Freight. I removed the battery cover (it takes 3 AAA batts), and power it with a phone charger. Simply cut off the connector on the phone charger and solder the two wires to the battery terminals in the light. Then, screw the light into the bottom, and you're done. Getting the music just right was quite challenging. Here are some insights: I took music from pdf, then saved as png/bmp, then went to an online website and converted the bmp to svg. Next, I went to Tinkercad. Tinker cad can easily import .svg and create an stl out of that. However, many times I did this, and the lines on the music staff were too thin to print, even with print thin walls enabled. After about 6 times messing with resolution and scaling, I was finally able to get the desired result. Piano enthusiasts will instantly recognize what song this is - a true classic for piano. You may or may not be able to scale the entire project; I'm unsure how successful that might be. I have an Anycubic Predator, with a 370mm diameter bed, and everything fit very easily.
