Description
A mini tea light lantern inspired by traditional Arabic geometric design, casting intricate patterns of warm light.
This lantern was designed for perfect printability without the need of supports or special settings. It fits tea lights with a diameter of up to 40mm and a height between 17 and 27mm. There is a cut out in the base so you can access the switch and battery of the tea light without disassembly of the lantern.
Disclaimer: This design can only be used with electric tea lights!
Printing
No special settings or supports are required for printing. All parts are on one build plate, I used 0.16mm layer height and sligthly increased strength settings.
Assembly
Assembly is very easy. Simply put the tea light into the base and screw the holder in. Now click the upper part into the base.
