Description

This is a 3D printable threaded light bulb and socket set, designed for use in DIY string lights, garden decor, or creative lighting projects. The bulb and socket feature a functional thread that allows the two pieces to be screwed together securely without glue or tools.

✅ Designed for FDM printers
✅ Printed and tested using PLA and PETG
✅ Easy to scale if needed for different use cases
✅ Great for educational, decorative, or prototyping purposes

📦 Includes:

1x Bulb (male threaded part)

1x Socket (female threaded part)

🛠 Printing recommendations:

Layer height: 0.12 mm

Wall line count: 3+

Infill: 15–25%

Material: PLA / PETG / ABS

Use tighter tolerances for waterproof or tight-fit applications (scale slightly if needed)

This model was tested on a Tronxy D01 printer but should be compatible with most FDM machines. If your thread fit is too tight, try scaling the male part down by 0.2–0.3 mm or adjust your slicer’s horizontal expansion settings.

💡 Idea: You can insert a small LED or simply use it as a decorative piece in your garden or around your home!
