Centauri Carbon Riser – Simple, Clean, Customizable

 

 

 

 

 

Looking for an easy-to-assemble riser for your Elegoo Centauri Carbon? This design offers a clean, functional lift in a modular format that prints in just two plates.

The back two pieces are universal and compatible with any of the three included front options:

• “Alpha Centauri Carbon by Elegoo” (embossed lettering)
• “Centauri Carbon by Elegoo” (raised lettering can be painted in Bambu Studio if desired)
• Blank version with a smooth front face for a minimalist look

A 6mm wiring hole is built into the back-left corner.  Perfect for routing LED wires if you'd like to add additional 

lighting. (I'm definitely adding LED lights it's dark in there!)

The fit is snug and stable. For best results, glue the four pieces together on an ultra flat surface or directly in place. Use GEL SuperGlue on the tops of the posts to avoid contact with the printer’s top foam surface.

For added protection and stability, consider adding a thin strip of foam tape (found on Amazon) along the top of the riser so your glass bed rests on a soft, non-slip surface.

 

• The LED light strip is a 5mm COB LED which requires only a 5v USB supply.  I repurposed a broken USB charger cord and added connectors so I could unplug the riser and move it easily if necessary.  Here's the list of items I used for this part of the riser.

Now it's nice and bright in there! 

 

Hope y'all get some good use out of this and as always happy printing!
