This is not a simple print, many things can go wrong, be sure that your printer is fully calibrated and clean.
Some consideration about filaments and profile plates.
• PETG or ABS is the better choice for heat resistance, but if you go with an LED bulb PLA is good as well
• For the Question Mark (Plate 1), use a filament that makes a good light effect like Azurfilm Lumos Moon Light or Bambu PLA Basic Jade White
• To increase the yellow effect on light choose a Hot Light Bulb, like a 3000K Temperature Color
• The Springs (Plate 2) are a middle way between Hard And Soft if they are too strong for you, redraw them with fewer curves but don't change the height needed to stay the same (30 mm)
• Plate choice is crucial and depends on the Filaments chosen and the final effect, I like the Textured Plate finish.
• Every Plate has a different specs, tested for the better result
• On Plate 4 removing support can be tricky, but they are mandatory, you can print the Bottom upside down if you want but the print time increases by 4 times
• Infill, My first choice was Grid Infill rotated by 90 degrees to simulate pixel effect in transparency, but after some testing, the grid infill gave some problems so I switched to Gyroid infill which is beautiful enough
• Plates 1, 5, and 6 need to be printed twice
• A minimum post-processing are necessary and phisiologic
Assemblage
There are 2 ways to assemble the lamp, depending if you want to use it on a table or under a shelf.
1) Joint questions Marks and Dots on every Side Face from behind (x4)
2) Joint questions the 4 faces
3) TIME TO MAKE A CHOICE - Joint Top And Bottom depending on your final use
4) Glue the 8 springs in the basement
5) Make connection between the Bulb Older, the switch, and the Cable.
6) Screw the Bulb Older at the Base and install the Bulb
7) Glue the Switch wherever you want in the Base
8) Push the Base on the Cube and rotate it by 90 degree
YOU ARE READY TO PUNCH IT
