Stereographic Hex Lamp with LED Holder and Stand

<h3><strong>Important!</strong></h3><p>I have made a version 2, which is better in every way: <a href="https://www.printables.com/model/328620-stereographic-projection-lamp-with-led-holder-and-">https://www.printables.com/model/328620-stereographic-projection-lamp-with-led-holder-and-</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><h3>Original Description</h3><p>This is a lamp that projects a hexagon pattern on the ceiling (or floor).</p><p>It is designed to hold a standard 20mm star emitter LED PCB. For the best results, use one with a single LED, as that will put the LED at the best point to get the sharpest pattern. While there is space to mount a heatsink, one is not required if the LED is run at low enough power. I found the PCB temperature plateaued at 55 C when running at 1 W in 25 C ambient temperatures, which should be safe for PETG and most PLA.</p><p>There are two different bases. One has a shield to keep the light from spilling out the sides.</p><p>I've included both a stand and a hanger for holding the lamp. The LED, lamp shade, and stand/hanger all screw together with three M3x8 screws. Additionally, I've included the template for the stand if you want to design your own.</p><h3>Print Settings</h3><p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p><p>No</p><p><strong>Supports:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>No</p><p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p><p>.20 mm</p><p><strong>Infill:&nbsp;</strong></p><p>15%</p><h3>Post-Printing</h3><p>You will need to glue the support arms to the hexagon part of the shade. I've included indexing tabs to help with this.</p><p>The LED, shade, and stand/hanger all screw together with three M3x8 screws.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Category: Math Art</p>
