Description
These Lightboxes are perfect for births, baptisms, birthdays, or just to add a special touch to a child's bedroom.
Just ask! I will evaluate every idea and do my best to make it happen.
(Check the photo for an example of a special request: Alessandro asked for a lamp with the logo of his favorite soccer team).
This project is optimized for AMS with 4 colors per print.
Note on Plate 3: If you find the cap too tight or difficult to snap in, do not force it! Please look for the "Small Cap (Easier Fit)" print profile and print that version instead. If it still feels snug, lightly sand the edges of the box opening or scrape them with a hobby knife. Always double-check your printer's flow and tolerances, as slight over-extrusion can easily affect how these snap-fits perform.
Because the name cover is less than 1mm thick and consists of multiple colors, it is very delicate.
Do not use a spatula or scraper to remove it!
Always wait for the build plate to cool down completely, then remove the plate from the printer and gently flex it. The print should pop off on its own with just a light flex. If you try to pry it off while the plate is hot or force it with a scraper, the color junctions will likely split.
Please be careful—let the plate do the work!
Printing Surface: Always print the "Name Cover" face down on a smooth PEI plate to get a flawless, glass-like finish.
Note: Stick to standard PLA or PLA Matte when using the 0.2mm nozzle, as some composite materials (like Silk, Glow, or Wood) can clog it easily.
Minimum feature size: 10%
"Make sure your First Layer Flow Ratio is calibrated. Since the text is printed on the plate, a slightly under-extruded first layer can ruin the crispness of the letters."
