Lantern LED Keychain

Boost MeHave a spare boost? Feel free to drop it here! They help me get more filament and tools so I can design more cool models!

If not, that's okay too - There are a ton of other great models to boost in the future!

This easy to print & assemble lantern can be yours in less than an hour.

 

It features a screw-on lid that allows easy access into the main compartment to hide items or putting an LED ball inside.

I specifically didn't add additional equipment to hold a ball to allow for different designs of Mini-leds inside. Additionally, while walking it looks to ‘flicker’ due to the changing position inside.

 

Designed to work with or without AMS, just requires 2 filament colours. (Ideally Black & White)

 

Print profile uses 2 plates - One with the main lantern intended to be printed in ‘black’, and another with the ‘shades’ intended for ‘white’.

Optional Additional Parts:

• ‘Balloon’ mini-led balls, fits anything ~15x15mm for light up (I used these)
• Superglue if printer doesn't have good tolerances.
• Optional Keychain kit to attach.

 

Instructions:

1. Print 1x of each item except for the shades; of which you'll need 4.
2. Slide the shades into the ‘base’
3. Attach (Optional super-glue) the ‘lid’ to the ‘base’
4. Insert Optional LED ball
5. Screw the lid on.
6. Profit
