Description
This is a solution to put leds in narrow spaces with specific angle. In my case to put light within my worksite that doesn't project light directly to my eyes. The light with the difusser doesn't bother even on the displays.
You can join the modules you need, with or without light diffuser.
Each module (without ends) has 150mm long, with this dimensions you can print with small bed printers (Prusa Mini / A1 mini), the end caps it's not 100% mandatory, but aid to fix the cabling and gives some appeal.
It's intended to be used with magnets, they are inserted during print.
With this element you can zip the cables with a tie.
The joining of each modules were made with square nuts and m3 screws, they are used to maintain together and join the modules, but not to be a tight union, because if you torque to much you will bend.
The whole project it's intended to be printed with 0.3mm layer height, if you want better detail you need to use 0.15mm layer height, first layer needs to be 0.2mm with 3 perimeters, 15% infill it's enough
Difusser are intended to be printed with clear / transparent Petg.
The rest of the project at least petg.
Led mounting bracket - Vertical, you found that I included a piece with support enforcer, these piece you need to cut or break at the end.
You need to use a pause to fit the magnets
You need to print vertical, fit the pieces the close as possible but not to much, to make a unique piece that you can break in pieces later. To make clear as possible you need to raise the flow to 110 or 115%, print without infill, 3 perimeters.
Slide the led strip into the led bracket
Insert square M3 nuts (3 in each rear led bracket)
