Vega - The LED-lit Christmas Star

myminifactory

With Creative Tools, we pay tribute to the winners of The Nobel Prize in Physics 2014. We salute Isamu Akasaki, Hiroshi Amano and Shuji Nakamura for their relentless work that brought us efficient LED lights, HD flatscreen TVs, computers and mobile devices. The 3D-files for our 3D-printable Vega Xmas Star are designed to house a standard LED light strip readily available in the market. FEATURES A five-pointed star made of 5 identical parts is easy to assemble without any glue required. Short segments of 1.75 mm filament hold the parts together, ensuring no mess or damage. Ventilation holes provide efficient cooling airflow to prevent overheating. A wall-mount comes included for both horizontal and vertical attachments. The wall-mount allows cable rotation adjustment to align the star perfectly parallel to the wall or window. This 3D-printable Vega Xmas Star is designed for LED strips measuring 8 x 3 x 1000 mm (12 V, 0.5 A). DISCLAIMER We have successfully used this star with standard low-power LED strips for indoor use. Please refer to your LED light source manual and follow all safety instructions. MAKE IT IN COLOUR! You can 3D-print in various plastic filament colours. The modular tips of the star allow for variations in colour per tip. Colour variations can also be achieved by using LED light strips with RGB colour control.
