The Decorative Light of Four Elements

prusaprinters

This is the visual incorporation of FIRE, WATER, EARTH, and WIND elements in a unique decorative light design.If you have a 3D printer and know the basics of electronics I bet you can easily make one yourself. You won't need any screws because the back panel just clips perfectly onto the frame.There are also small slots to guide where to glue 12V RGB LED strips, it makes the process much easier!The light consumes ~5W and you can use a dimming switch. You can download STL files with different thicknesses of the outer wall.Build guide: https://www.instructables.com/The-Decorative-Light-of-Four-Elements/MY CHANNEL: youtube.com/DIYPerspective Print SettingsPrinter Brand:AnycubicPrinter: All-metal MegaRafts:NoSupports: NoResolution:0.2 mmInfill: 50-100%Filament: Any PETG Black Notes:3D printing settings:There are no special requirements for the print, but I printed at 0.2mm layer height for a better fit for the back cover and less visible lines.The first layer here is INSANELY important. Make sure it prints perfectly as it will be the face of the light. You don't want any errors here.The outside wall will be visible too. In my case, as I printed the version with walls of 2mm thick you can still see where those connect. So if you want to avoid that print STL version with 3mm or 4mm outer walls.If you have a build plate area of 210x210mm then you will be able to fit it. You will need to angle it. This means that the sides will be right at the edges of the build plate. And those areas usually are lower in temperature. So if you never printed something this big it can be a good idea to increase the build plate temperature to prevent the sides of the print to detach from the base.PETG or anything with better heat resistance is recommended.MY CHANNEL: youtube.com/DIYPerspective
