LED Arch Desk Light

Boost MeDid you find this useful? I'd love a boost!

 

Desk-mounted LED light bridge for 180 degree illumination. Great for soldering, painting, and more.

 

Designed with 3 goals in mind:

• Simplicity - only 3 different pieces. Arch segments and connectors are bidirectional
• Strength - The arches are designed to print with 3 x .4mm walls, or 2 x .6mm walls, and have a reinforced structure
• Efficiency - The entire unit only requires around 0.6kg of filament

Print the following amounts:

• Base x 2
• Segments x 8
• Connectors x 7

Additional Hardware:

• LED strip - channel is designed to fit any of the typical 8-12mm led strips on the market.  1.7m long should be plenty.
  • I used this LED strip for good brightness/color accuracy: https://amzn.to/46i1D41
• Countersunk Wood screws x 4 - Optional for mounting to a desk

Length from base to base once assembled: 120cm as designed. You should be able to scale each piece up/down uniformly to fit your workspace.
